The Rear Guard, 1907
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Charles Schreyvogel is a captivating oil painting that depicts a scene from the early twentieth century. In this artwork, we are transported to an outdoor setting during daytime, where a group of soldiers on horseback form the rear guard. The artist's attention to detail and mastery of color brings this historical moment to life. The composition showcases a medium-sized group of men dressed in military attire, their brown uniforms contrasting against the natural space surrounding them. With intense focus and determination, they aim their handguns while mounted on majestic horses. A covered wagon can be seen in the background, symbolizing transportation during that era. Schreyvogel's skillful brushstrokes capture every nuance of posture and expression as these soldiers fulfill their duty. The artist's use of light creates depth and adds drama to the scene as one soldier looks back over his shoulder, ensuring no threat approaches from behind. This artwork not only highlights Schreyvogel's talent but also serves as a testament to American history and its armed forces during this time period. "The Rear Guard" invites viewers into an important moment frozen in time – reminding us of the bravery and sacrifice displayed by those who served our country. (Photo credit: Bridgeman Images)
