Description
A soldier stands slumped behind barbed wire. The title would suggest imprisonment, although it could be a metaphorical prison.
This drawing is attributed to Louis Vasco - the artist's given name was Vasco Loureiro but he enlisted as Louis Vasco and has signed his name 'Vasco', 'Spr Vasco'.
