Les Poilus
1915–1918

A black and white etching depicting a group of soldiers huddled together, with their backs to the viewer. They appear to be in conversation or receiving orders. In the background, there are outlines of trees and a building with a chimney, suggesting a rural setting. The artist's signature, "E. Hopper," is visible in the lower left corner, and the print is numbered and signed by the printer in the lower right. The paper shows signs of age with slightly frayed edges.
