The message in the image of what seems to be a soldier playing the piano comes across to an audience as that even if one carries such grad responsibilities with them, they will always have secret guilty pleasures or abilities they love. Everyone in society carries some secret talent or activity they find joy in doing. Even when taking such grand important roles such as in the work field or becoming a parent etc, one might feel as if they must stray away from these activities that bring them joy in order to meet the responsible characteristics to fit the role. 
  A humans natural senses might deter them from being their own selves to fit the standard others hold on them. Although many might face this problem, others might believe they need to express themselves whether be it by an art form or enjoying certain aspects life has to offer. Just because one takes on the form of being important, does not mean they have to leave everything behind of what makes them happy. In this picture, one correlates the soldier to being harsh and having high responsibilities, but simply because hes playing the piano does not mean his duty's value is weakened, just that he is enjoying himself and is happy.
