This image shows a black and white etching of a man's head surrounded by various objects. The man has curly hair and wears a ruffled collar. He is framed by a circular border with text, but the words are not clear. The objects surrounding the man include tents, weapons, and other military equipment. There are also some musical instruments, like trumpets and drums. The overall scene appears to be a celebration or a military gathering. The etching is part of a series and is held at the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
