About this work

This drawing shows soldiers crouched in a muddy trench, their faces sharp and tired. The lines are rough but controlled. Iosif Iser used quick strokes to show fear and exhaustion. He drew this in 1917 during World War I. It’s one of the few works about the war from a Romanian artist. The focus is on people, not battles. Look up the Museum of Ethnography to see more of his drawings.
