Sketch - News from the Army

Archibald Willard

Cleveland Museum of Art

Sketch of people in a room. A group of adults and children gathered around a seated man reading a document. The man sitting has a hat on with a rounded crown and narrow brim. He sits on a low box and leans forward. A man stands behind him with a mustache and flat cap. A woman with downcast eyes wearing a cap and dress and a young girl wearing a dress stand to the right. A man wearing a hat with a wide brim stands to the left side of the group holding a larger hat. A small girl wearing a dress stands on the right edge. A horse's head and a man wearing a hat are drawn on the left edge. The paper is aged and the right and left edges are torn. Text at bottom reads "News from the Army" on left and "Sketch by A.M. Willard" on right.
