Civil War Soldier

Mina Lowry

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a sculpture of a soldier standing upright. The soldier is dressed in a dark uniform with gold buttons. He wears a military cap and has an elongated face with a nose and a beard. His stance is stiff with arms by his sides. The sculpture is made from wood and stands on a rectangular base painted in dark red. The craftsmanship is simplistic with minimal detail, giving it an abstract appearance.
