"War Image" is an abstract print by American artist Anna Held Audette (1939-2013). The work features a series of geometric shapes, seemingly fragmented, that are reminiscent of human anatomy, possibly a body or a head. Audette's work is known for its bold, graphic style and exploration of themes of war and violence, seen here through its geometric abstraction and somber color palette.
