This painting shows a group of soldiers marching up a hill. Some ride horses, others walk. A few carry guns on wheels. The sky looks stormy, and the colors are mostly dark browns, grays, and muted greens. Notice how the light hits the soldiers’ faces and clothes. The artist used shadows to make some parts pop while others fade into the background. Check out *chiaroscuro* to see how light and dark create drama in art.
