Tapestry woven in wool and silk and framed in borders of military trophies with at centre top a larger trophy of flags and lances surmounted by trumpets crossed through a laurel wreath. The lower trophy is of saddles, bundles, harness, trunks and riding boots.
In the centre a group of mounted officers attended by messengers and servants, one a black African, and following them is a long file of mounted men and foot soldiers winding across the distant plain. The commander of the army is mounted on a white horse and holding a baton, and leads the foreground group. Watching the scene on the ground at the left are a countryman and a woman nursing a child.
Woven with 20 warp threads to the inch.
