This portrait of a grenadier is beautifully lit, with the soldier reading a letter by the light of a kerosene lamp. It was painted by Marius Roy.
Marius Roy (1853-1921) was a French painter who specialized in depicting military scenes in an academic style. He strove to depict a more human, almost social, vision of the soldier, turning his representations of a soldier's daily life into true military genre scenes.
The work has been restored and cleaned, and is in generally good condition. Traces of wear and rubbing are typical of old paintings.
