a) Two Soldiers in a Trench (recto); b) Interior with Figures Seated Behind Table (verso) is a 1916 ink by Jean-Louis Forain, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting has two sides: one shows two soldiers in a trench, and the other shows people seated behind a table. This work is interesting because it was created during a significant time period, around 1914 to 1919. The artist used a combination of black crayon, brush, and black ink on wove paper to create the images. To learn more about similar artworks, look up the technique of cross-hatching.
