Hercules and the Kabul Gate Guard - by Ardell Bourgeois
A scene
witnessed by the artist while overseas with Canadian Forces Artist
Program in July, 2002. The airport at Kabul is in a shambles with derelict
Soviet equipment, left over from the Afghan War of the 1980s, strewn about.
This Canadian 'Herc' has dropped off its cargo of humanitarian relief
supplies and will soon be leaving again. (36x18 inches Oil on Hardboard)
