About this work
A winter battle scene shows infantry soldiers in long grey coats and tall shakos advancing with fixed bayonets through a snowy birch forest. A mounted officer raises his arm on the left, and a fallen soldier lies in the snow beside a wheel, while smoke rises behind the ranks and a regimental banner flies above the palisade. This painting, titled Fix Bayonets! Hooray! Hooray!, was made by Vasily Vereshchagin in 1887 and is held by the Museum of Patriotic War 1812.
