About the work

In the museum's own words — in Romanian

Studiu realizat în timpul campaniei din 1877. Pe vreme de iarnă, un grup de prizonieri turci înaintează cu greu, pe diagonală, dinspre dr. spre stg., prin câmpiile înghețate ale Bulgariei, sub supravegherea unor soldați români călare. Scenă dramatică rezolvată prin câteva trăsături sintetice și hașuri ample, aplicate pe latul batonului de cărbune. Sub impactul realităților de pe front și a găsirii unor soluții eficiente, de consemnare rapidă, desenul său se simplifică decisiv. Ductul aspru, culoarea hârtiei și asceza cromatică (alb-negru-gri), induc și mai pregnant un sentiment tragic.
