Mark Gertler, an English painter during World War I, is famous for his masterpiece Carousel.

The scene depicted: forced to put on the uniform, driven by the so-called "war on terror" like a robot, and rotating repeatedly there is meaningless. In the merry-go-round of oil painting, people with stiff posture and dull eyes are riding ghostly horses, spinning round and round without stopping. Gertler presents the carousel, an element traditionally associated with joy and children, in such a bizarre and absurd way, which highlights the confusion of the whole picture. This "merry-go-round" was created during the First World War, reflecting Gertler's comments on endless wars. This painting is regarded as the most important work during the war. At that time, it was not only praised, but also severely criticized. As a pacifist and descendant of Polish Jewish immigrants, Gertler strongly opposed Britain's participation in the war, and his views were fully displayed in this unique painting.
