[Two studies of soldiers on horseback]
Coverless sketchbook containing 30 sketches of horses, landscape and Anzac Light Horse Memorial 1919
Description
This sketch depicts an Australian light horse moving to the left in the saddle in response to the movement of the horse carrying him.
This is possibly a study for Lambert's painting of 'The charge of the Australian Light Horse at Beersheba, 31 October 1917', this could be a study of a soldier on horseback for the figure on the right of the composition, the figure to the immediate right of the rearing horse.
