You see a bright, loose print of soldiers and flags in red, white, and blue. Dufy made this right as World War I began. The flags aren’t crisp—they’re smudged and overlapping, like a quick sketch. It feels urgent, not polished. The colors bleed a little, giving the scene energy without sharp lines. Look up lithography to see how ink and stone create this kind of print.
