The soldier wears an Asian military uniform, showcasing the diverse nature of those who fought in World War I. The artist's skillful use of pastels brings out the intensity and emotion in the soldier's face. His piercing gaze reflects both determination and weariness, capturing the toll that war takes on individuals. The khaki color palette adds to the somber atmosphere, reminding viewers of the grim reality faced by soldiers during this tumultuous period. Notably inscribed on the verso is a touching dedication: "Guerre de 1914 - Hindou- Offert par M. Forcella en 1917 a M. P. P".
