The Wounded Soldier is a 1788 watercolor by Marshall Craig, a Neoclassicism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This drawing shows three people outdoors: a woman holding a baby, a man sitting with a bandaged arm, and another man leaning on a stick. The woman wears a simple dress and a bonnet, while the men look tired. Behind them, a rocky hillside has bushes and flowers, and the sky is soft and light. The man’s bandaged arm and the stick suggest he might be hurt. The artist used soft colors and gentle shading to show their emotions. Look up Romanticism next to see how this style often focused on strong feelings and everyday life.
A watercolour painting titled *The Wounded Soldier* was created by Marshall Craig in 1788.
