One man wears what appears to be a jersey and short pants. Another wears a helmet. The spears and halberds of additional soldiers are visible in the background. Another man with a beard and mustache is directly behind the central figure; he points to the right. At the far left, a woman is holding a cloth or handkerchief to her face and appears to be weeping.
