I've always questioned the interpretations of alleged masterpiece paintings.
Was what you said above the actual words of the artist or merely an "expert's" opinion of what they think the artist was trying to convey?
Painter and painter’s circle of friends and acquaintenances both while alive and after his death.
Why are you even asking? Are you implying the painter was sex-starved or obsessed? Are you implying the naked dead soldier is in your perception some sort of expression of a sexual perversion of the painter’s diseased mind?
Your statements reveal more about your mind than the art of that period.
