The sketch displays a landscape with minimalistic line work. The horizon is in the middle of the paper, dividing the land and the sky. Trees and a cannon are drawn along the horizon. Figures, possibly soldiers, are depicted in various poses. The background shows faint indications of trees and structures. The pencil work is light and delicate, giving the drawing a monochromatic and soft appearance due to the graphite on the textured paper.
