About this work

This painting shows a soldier in a bright red jacket and white pants, standing outdoors. He’s adjusting his cape and hat, which has a red plume. Behind him, two other soldiers sit on the ground, also in red and white uniforms. The background is a blurry, pale sky with a few trees and a field of dry grass. The soldier’s uniform looks fancy, with gold buttons and a sword at his side. The brushstrokes are loose, making the scene feel quick and real. If you like this style, check out Realism next.
