A horizontally oriented lithograph in black ink depicts a dense group of warriors clashing on horseback and foot against a sketchy background of horizontal hatching. Figures wield raised spears and circular shields. To the left, a rider on a rearing white horse lunges into the fray. In the lower right foreground, a fallen person lies prone. Frantic lines and dark shadows create a sense of chaotic movement across the off-white paper.
