Stnading Male Nude with Trumpet, Lucille Douglass, charcoal on machine-made laid paper
This landscape painting represents an expansive scene with two dogs on a foreground shore, and two men in a rowboat at the edge of a body of water heavily overgrown with water grasses. There are trees in the left foreground and behind the men, as well as an open body of water. On the bank of land across the body of water is a home situated in a landscape that includes low, rolling mountains.
Glorious Fighting, William Gilbert Gaul, oil on canvas
Two cavalry soldiers riding at full gallop. One has been founded and the other is helping to support him. The figures are supported solely by the foreleg of one horse and the hind leg of the other. A single buffalo skull adorns the base.
