A Y.M.C.A. Tent, Is-sur-Tille

War Department · 1918-06

A watercolor and charcoal sketch on brown paper mounted on brown card frame of a Y.M.C.A. tent. The interior of the tent is notably large in width and in height and is shown with a large ceiling space with visible wooden beams. Chairs are seen in the left foreground and American soldiers wearing brown lounging around the tent. The wall in the back is painted yellow and pink. Ceiling lamps are hung above in two rows. Soldiers apparently are wait to buy something from an area in the back near the door. The picture is painted mostly brown with some pink stripes on the back wall probably to show the sun's illumination.
