The General,  Oilpaint on Linnen Canvas. (2023)
120 x 100 cm.

The general shows a man dressed in a military costume. If you look closer, you might see that this outfit is worn out and that makes the situation a bit different. He's looking to see if he's going to get decorated or something. It looks more like a play than a serious event.
