About this work

This sketch shows two soldiers on horseback in a dark, shadowy scene. The lines are rough and uneven, making the figures look tense and hurried. One rider is holding a long stick, and the horses seem to be moving fast. The artist used a simple black-and-white style, focusing on strong shapes over details. The text at the bottom reads *"E.L. Kirchner"* and *"Abt. Kasernenhof."* Next, check out lithography to see how this print was made.
