This black and white chalk drawing, titled "Militaire a cheval (Soldier on Horseback), c. 1860" is a masterpiece created by the renowned French artist Isidore Pils. The artwork showcases Pils' exceptional talent for capturing movement and emotion in his subjects. In this particular piece, Pils portrays a soldier mounted on horseback during the mid-19th century. The soldier's posture exudes confidence and strength as he sits tall in his saddle, ready for any challenge that may come his way. His uniform reflects the military fashion of the time, with intricate details meticulously rendered by Pils' skilled hand. The use of black and white chalk on beige laid paper adds depth to the composition while maintaining an air of simplicity that allows viewers to focus on the subject itself.
