Drill with the Musket is a 1634 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows three men in old-fashioned clothes and hats. Two hold long guns, and one holds a stick. Their boots are tied with ribbons, and they stand on a flat ground line. The drawing is simple but full of small details, like the folds in their clothes. The artist used a sharp tool to scratch lines into the paper. Next, look up etching to see how this technique works.
