About the piece
Painted in 1918 by Charles William Jefferys, this watercolor captures the Siberian Battery training with gun limbers. The composition balances the disciplined movement of the soldiers and horses in the foreground with the sprawling white tents of the Canadian military encampment in the distance, set against a backdrop of rolling hills and a brewing storm sky.
