About this work

Two mounted cavalrymen charge side by side, one in a blue and yellow uniform raising a saber and the other in a red jacket and fur-trimmed shako, gripping his reins while swinging his blade. Behind them a melee of riders and fallen figures unfolds across a grassy field, rendered in hand-colored etching. The print is Thomas Rowlandson's work titled Cut One and Bridle Arm Protect, dated September 1, 1798.
