Black and white drawing of a soldier with a pickaxe slung over his right shoulder. The soldier has a hat on, with his body turned to the right. He wears a bag on his back and another bag on his left side. The background depicts a chaotic scene with a burning building on the right. There are several people in the background. The image has a border and some writing at the bottom. The title of the work is written in blue ink: "La Retraite après Charleroi". The artist's name is written in black ink. The image appears to be an illustration created with a bold, expressive style.
