The image depicts a battle scene with numerous people on horseback and on foot, engaged in combat. The scene is set in a mountainous region with trees and tents scattered throughout. In the foreground, several individuals on horseback are shown, some holding flags or weapons. Others are on the ground, either fighting or fallen. Some people appear to be pulling down a large fabric structure. In the background, there are more people on horseback and on foot, as well as tents and buildings. The sky above features mountains and clouds. At the top of the image, Chinese text is written in black ink, accompanied by a small red seal.
