About this work

This painting shows a group of people gathered outside. Some hold rifles, others wave flags with three colors—blue, yellow, and red. A table in the center holds food and drinks. The scene feels busy, with soldiers and civilians mixed together, and bare trees in the background. Notice the way the artist used thick brushstrokes, especially on the uniforms and flags. The colors pop against the darker background, making the flags stand out. Look up impasto next to see how artists use thick paint like this.
