"Sheet with Stumped Sketch" (1839), by French artist Auguste Raffet (1804-1860), is a graphite drawing depicting two figures. One figure, a soldier, stands in a field with a rifle, while the other, a civilian, walks along a path. The drawing, which is part of the Art Institute of Chicago's collection, exemplifies Raffet's skill as a draftsman and his focus on depicting the lives of ordinary people. Raffet's work is known for its realism and often depicts military life and scenes of war.
