Pulling soldiers 1908

"Pulling Soldiers" is a 1908 ink drawing by Ferdinand Hodler. The drawing depicts a group of soldiers marching, with their bodies and uniforms rendered in expressive, gestural strokes. Hodler's drawing style is characterized by its rhythmic lines and elongated figures, which create a sense of movement and dynamism. This drawing is a powerful example of Hodler's ability to capture the human form in motion, while conveying the somber atmosphere of wartime. The drawing's size, 33.5 x 44.3 cm, adds to the intimate and personal nature of the scene.
