Composition in black and white. Draft rapid lines. It depicts two groups facing each other in a street with lines suggesting buildings on the left. The group is in the foreground to the left and looks in disarray, but it is very compact. At the bottom, on the right, another group formed by suggesting a battalion, seeing in the first row five side by side.
