"Kaartspelende soldaten" (1854), by Willem (I) Linnig, depicts a group of soldiers playing cards in a dimly lit room. The artist's detailed etching captures the intimate moment with a focus on the soldiers’ expressions, the tools of their trade lying abandoned nearby. This artwork provides a glimpse into the lives of soldiers, offering a moment of leisure amidst their duties. The scene is set in a seemingly military encampment, adding to the historical and societal context of the piece. The print’s small size (326 mm x 265 mm) adds to its intimacy, drawing the viewer into the soldiers’ world.
