Drawing in pen, wash and watercolor. It represents soldiers loaded with bags, moving on foot and using two horse-drawn carriages. They walk on a dirt road, located in massiges, in the marne. Much fighting took place in this region during world war i, when this drawing was made. Georges barrière transcribes the dark and heavy atmosphere of the conflict by representing this scene in shades of gray, using the wash technique. Only a glimmer of light on the horizon illuminates the scene. Date: 1916. Dimensions: 1 pièce. 21,5 x 31,9. Medium: paper, pen and wash, watercolor. Depicted Place: Massiges. Collection: La contemporaine, Nanterre. Relève sur la route de Massiges (Marne), Georges Barrière
