Three cavalry soldiers are positioned in the foreground. Two have firearms and one has been struck with a spear. There are three arrows in the ground around the men. Three fallen solders and at a kneeling soldier in the background.

Billy Schenck (born 1947) has been known internationally as one of the originators of the contemporary "Pop" western movement and an American painter who incorporates techniques from Photo-Realism with a Pop Art sensibility to both exalt and poke fun at images of the West.
