Achille Vèron se retirant sous sa tente

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts two figures standing in different postures. The larger figure on the right is standing dominantly with a raised leg, while the smaller figure on the left is retreating into a tent. The larger figure wears a helmet and has facial hair, carrying a shield labeled "PATE DE REGNAULT" and a feather-like object. They have a large torso. Both figures wear Romanesque or Greek warrior-style outfits with tunics and sandals. The background shows a tent with drapes.
