Sepia-toned drawing of a circular scene depicting a battle or conflict. Figures in dynamic poses are emerging from clouds. A central figure with spear faces another on the left; both appear armed. On the right side, a figure gestures with one arm extended; they hold a shield-like object. Various figures are scattered throughout, some with weapons; the mood suggests themes of war and peace. The composition features multiple overlapping figures and objects rendered in varying shades of brown on beige background. A thin brown border surrounds the drawing.
