Three etched soldiers in plumed hats stand side by side holding long pikes, with Latin inscription below on a pale page.

Three Soldiers with Pikes, Military Exercises

Three etched figures of soldiers in plumed hats and tunics stand in a row on a bare ground, each holding a long pike or halberd upright or angled across the body. Below them a line of Latin lettering reads Cum Privilegio Reg. Israel excudit, and fine hatching on pale paper marks this as an engraving.
