Eby (1890-1946) was an illustrator known for his combat imagery of the First and Second World Wars. In World War I he drove ambulances and camouflaged artillery, all the while recording scenes of death and destruction that he produced in etchings and lithographs issued in the 1920s and 1930s with anti-war essays. Too old to reenlist in 1941, he returned to the battlefield as a commercial combat artist in the Pacific and contracted a tropical disease, which took his life in 1946.
