A black and white drawing of a courtyard scene with a large building. The building has a pagoda-style roof with curved eaves. At the top of the image, there is a row of Chinese characters. In the courtyard, there are many people standing in formation. Some are wearing traditional Chinese clothing and some are holding weapons. The people are arranged in rows and appear to be prisoners or captives. The prisoners are wearing traditional clothing and head coverings. A group of people on horseback are standing to the left. The background shows a cloudy sky and trees. The image is framed by a thin brown border.
