Gray sketch on paper of a man climbing up to the right, seen from the back and side. The man wears 18th-century clothing, with a long-sleeved shirt, loose-fitting pants, and shoes. His left leg is bent at the knee and behind him, while his right leg is extended in front, with the foot turned outward and heel raised. His left arm is bent at the elbow and holds a rope. His right arm is extended up and appears to grip something. The background is a plain gray color with some darker gray sketch marks. The man appears to be part of a military scene, as indicated by the title.
