A soldier in a bright red coat sits astride a dark brown horse. The rider holds a rifle across his lap, looking off to the side. The background is a blurry green field with a faint hint of a distant crowd or scene. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the painting a textured feel. The lighting is simple but focused, making the red coat stand out against the darker horse and background. This painting uses a technique called *impasto*—where paint is laid thickly on the canvas.
