Infanterie in gevecht c. 1824 - 1894

"Infanterie in gevecht" is a watercolor painting by Charles Rochussen depicting a scene of infantry soldiers in battle, most likely from the 19th century. The artwork, held by the Rijksmuseum, is a small-scale work, capturing the detail of a group of soldiers in the midst of action. The composition focuses on a group of soldiers in the foreground, with a larger formation of troops visible in the background. Rochussen's realistic style and focus on military subjects are characteristic of his work and demonstrate the artist's interest in documenting the details of military life in the 19th century.
