Abstract:
Postcard featuring a color illustration of two nurses and two soldiers, with Christ standing in the air in the background. One soldier is lying in a prone position with his gun underneath him and a helmet on the ground not far from him. The other soldier, who is being tended by a nurse, is sitting partway up. He is wearing a blue coat and red pants. The nurse who is helping him has her right arm behind his back and is feeding him something out of a bowl with her left hand. There is a monument of a cross behind the nurse and soldier. The other nurse is standing and holding a box. Both of the nurses are dressed in white, have a dark cloak, and have a cross on their chest. Christ is depicted with white and red robes, with a heart on his chest and a halo around his head.
