Abstract:
This color postcard depicts a Red Cross nurse protecting a soldier on the battlefield. The soldier, wearing a Zouave-style uniform with red pants, blue shirt and red cap with tastle, lies on the ground, leaning up on one elbow. He holds a gun in his right hand and is making a fist with his left. The nurse, wearing a long white uniform and cap, with Red Cross insignias on the cap and bodice, kneels next to him. Her right hand is on the soldier's chest in a protective manner and her left is extended, palm facing out.
