The Veteran
David Wright. Drawn by a sense
of duty to one's country, many boys as young as 10 or 12 years old chose
to go off to war. Rather than serving in the capacity of rifle toting
soldiers, they became drummers and fifers - important duties when it came
to moving troops and boosting morale. They shared the same difficulties,
hardships, and privations as any soldier in the field, and were veterans
in every sense of the word. 19¼"x 24½" print is signed and numbered by the
artist. |
