Notes & Analysis of the Artwork
Two shades of Green, meaning both life, death, and sorrow.
- The darker green of the trees (Fuscous Gray), symbolizes the cycle of rebirth and death.
- The lighter green of the uniforms (Viridian), tells of both the sorrow and greed of the soldiers.
The Pink (Chestnut Rose) reminds us of Christ’s divine purity.
- Deep tone. The innocence of Christ’s conviction and the purity of his spirit.
The Maroon (Cedar Wood Finish) delivers compassion and care.
- Only boldly shown on the soldiers, connected to the bleeding on Christ.
- A warm hue delivers a comforting presence with its connection to Christ.
