Annabel Dover's series of cyano type print is held in the collection of the Imperial War Museum. Each item of clothing represents a different viewpoint on war. The artist's stepfather’s sock was sewn and mended by the German nurses who looked after him when he was shot down over the Black Forest. He hid his sock and scarf from the British nurses who burnt everything he had possessed in the POW camp.
