DescriptionThe image is a landscape setting of a military review; a long line of male figures dressed in military uniforms extends diagonally across the visual plane from the lower left to the upper right. In front of the standing figures a group of figures mounted on horses, all male with the exception of one female, parade past. In the lower right corner a group of figures look on as spectators; in the distant left a body of water can be seen.On View
