Artist, American, 1910 - 1992

This is a drawing of soldiers in combat. The scene shows a group of soldiers wearing helmets and carrying rifles, moving forward with determination and tension. The artist's technique creates a chiaroscuro effect through the use of black and white contrasts, giving the figures a dynamic quality. The soldiers appear to be engaged in an attack or advancing through a trench, emphasizing the theme of war and conflict. The strong, angular lines and expressionist style suggest an influence of early 20th-century war art.
