Marching as to War 1904

"Marching as to War" is an etching by American artist Helen Hyde, created in 1904. The print, currently located at the Art Institute of Chicago, depicts a young Japanese boy, likely a samurai, in full traditional attire. He strides forward with a confident air, carrying a red and white flag, highlighting his determined stance. Hyde's attention to detail in capturing the intricate patterns of the boy's kimono and the background cityscape emphasizes her mastery of etching and her fascination with Japanese culture.
