This book is stunning. The color work is exquisite. Many images seem to have been influenced by Japanese wood block prints. Some unique touches are the shadows of off-camera horses on pages 11 and 12, the atmospheric effect on the line of soldiers on page 31, and the dramatic blue-red-orange palette of the burning Moscow scene on page 39. For someone in a pre-cinema era, the artist certainly had a cinematic eye.
