This print is packed with people in action—soldiers marching, a half-naked man leading a horse, and a crowd holding banners. The scene looks busy but orderly, with two tall columns framing the middle. The background shows a city with towers and a river, while the sky has a full moon and flying figures. There’s a lot of text on the banners, though it’s hard to read. Notice how the light and dark areas create depth, almost like shadows in real life. This effect is key to the technique used. Look up technique: woodcut next to see how this print was made.
