Armistice Day, Balham, London

Oil painting by Hanna Weil depicting Armistice Day in Balham, London. 1960.

The painting depicts a winter scene with a large, ornate building that appears to be a church. The architecture features a prominent clock tower and spire, along with arched doorways and windows. A flag adorns the roofline, and the ground is covered in snow. In the foreground, 3 figures, one woman and two children face and look directly at the viewer, and in the background several groups of figures are located in different parts of the building. The sky has a muted yellow hue, suggesting either dawn or dusk, with a bright yellow sun on the right side.
