Cart Filled with Wounded Soldiers (Chariot charge de soldats blesses)

Théodore Gericault

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a crowded carriage being pulled by three horses. The horses are detailed with a strong sense of motion and tension. The carriage is loaded with figures in historical clothing. Some figures appear to be interacting. Two men are depicted in the foreground and background, appearing to direct the horses. The drawing conveys movement and activity, with a monochromatic color scheme emphasizing the historical feel.
