"The Soldier" (1914) by German Expressionist artist Christian Rohlfs depicts a soldier in a moment of intense emotion. The figure is rendered in a highly expressive style, with gestural brushstrokes and a palette dominated by earthy tones and bold blue accents. The soldier's face is contorted in anguish, perhaps representing the horrors of war. Rohlfs's work is known for its raw emotional power and his ability to convey the inner turmoil of his subjects.
