This painting shows a man in a bright military uniform. He’s holding a rifle and standing on a plain, sandy ground. His outfit has gold trim on the jacket and pants, a white skirt-like garment, and a red hat. His face has a mustache and a patch over one eye. The patch over his eye is a small but striking detail. It suggests he might have lost his eye, which was common among soldiers in history. If you want to learn more about the artist who painted this, look up Preziosi, Amedeo.
