Le Jeune Soldat is a 1737 ink by Charles-Nicolas Cochin I, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This drawing shows a woman in a long, flowing dress holding a drum and a stick. She’s standing on a patch of grass with a few scattered leaves. Her hair is pulled up, and she looks like she’s marching or playing music. The artist used fine lines to show her clothes and the ground, making everything look textured. This style was common in the Baroque period, where details like folds in fabric mattered a lot. Next, look up etching to see how artists like Cochin I made prints like this.
