Attack during the Sino-Japanese War

Comments - Dynamic action scene depicting a battle during the Sino-Japanese War. At right, two Meiji Imperial officers on horseback rally the troops to attacking, waving their swords as the soldiers rush forward on foot. In the center, a shot explodes from the muzzle of a gun as a Japanese soldier fires, knocking a Chinese rider from his falling horse. A swirling plume of red smoke drifts up across the battlefield along with clouds of gray smoke and dust. A dramatic image with expressive figures, nicely detailed with fine bokashi shading and burnishing in the black uniforms.
