Ostași români pe front, 1917 is a 1917 by Camil Ressu, held at King Ferdinand I National Military Museum.
This painting shows three soldiers in a rocky, outdoor setting. Two men sit on the ground, talking quietly, while a third stands nearby, leaning against a rock wall. The colors are earthy—greens, browns, and grays—with a few patches of brighter sky in the background. The soldier on the left has a white headband, suggesting he might be injured. The artist used bold brushstrokes to show texture in their uniforms and the rough terrain. Look up Ressu, Camil to see more of his work.
Camil Ressu was a Romanian painter and academic, one of the most significant art figures of Romania.
