The central figure is a man standing, wearing a red hat with a black band, a black jacket with red epaulets and red pants, and white boots; he has a large backpack on his back and a rifle in his right hand. Behind him, to the right, is a man on a white horse wearing a similar uniform; he also wears a red hat and has a rifle. To the right of the horse is another man in uniform on foot. On the left side are more soldiers. The background shows a field with brown and yellow grass, and a gray sky. The soldiers' uniforms are predominantly black, red, and white.
