Camouflage in War-time

Nature volume 146, page 168 (1940)Cite this article

Abstract

THE article on camouflage in NATURE of June 22 provides ample evidence of incompetence in this subject, but the writer has turned his guns in the wrong direction. His attack on artists has little relation to fact, in that the vast mass of ‘camouflage” visible in all its glorious futility on army vehicles and buildings is not the work of artists.
