The image shows four men outdoors. Three men are standing on the left, drawing bows and aiming arrows at a target on the right. They are dressed in period attire. The fourth man is on the right, standing and facing the archers. He has long hair and wears a fur-collared coat over a tunic, holding a large feather in his left hand. The background has trees and bushes with fluffy clouds in the sky. The target on the right has arrows in it. The foreground has grassy terrain, vegetation, stones, and a wooden fence.
