Image description

Soldiers are told that the war is over. The soldiers are dressing and shaving under mosquito nets, when their companions look in to tell them that the war is over. The idea of Reveille (the morning wake-up) is the physical equivalent to Resurrection, and the picture connects with 'Dug-Out', occupying the same position in relation to the east wall; both scenes were originally thought of as a 'Resurrection' picture. On a spiritual plane the soldiers on the right have perhaps seen the truth of the Resurrection and are eager to inform their colleagues.
