John Singer Sargent, 1918–1919

The image features three military figures sketched in detail on the left side. The figures are standing close together and facing slightly left. The leftmost figure wears a soldier's hat and is holding the central figure, who wears a long coat and an officer's hat. The central figure, wearing a helmet and holding a rifle, supports the leftmost figure and has their right hand on the third figure on their right. Detailed hand sketches occupy the right side of the image. The drawing is done in charcoal or pencil on a plain background.
