Above Throughout the UK, Europe and elsewhere, starting this year and continuing through 2018, all sorts of things are being planned in connection with the
World War 1 Centenary—exhibitions, events, publications and online information blogs. Shown here for example is the opening page for an extensive website on
14-18-NOW: WW1 Centenary Art Commissions (a convenient way to keep updated), maintained through the efforts of the
Imperial War Museum and the
Department for Culture, Media & Sport. The image above is one of a series of woodcuts by British Vorticist artist
Edward Wadsworth who, as a dock officer during World War 1, supervised the painting of more than 2,000 dazzle-painted ships.
Below is the colored camouflage plan for the starboard side of the
HMS Highflyer.

Another helpful current source is the
BBC's multimedia guide to WW1, with an especially rich section on
ship camouflage, including the diagram posted
below.
