Off Duty, 1918 wartime sketch by Dunn

Two soldiers sit against a pale, textured wall beneath a hanging metal cup, one in a helmet and one bareheaded, resting on a bench. Loose sheets of paper lie on the ground in the foreground, and the scene is rendered in loose oil and watercolor with warm ochre tones.
