About this work

A hand-colored print shows a wide battlefield at dusk, with dense ranks of infantry in blue uniforms and tall bearskin caps advancing across a hilltop. Smoke and gunfire rise through the centre, while a bare tree stands at the left edge beside a wooden cross and a fallen figure lies on the ground.
