"A soldier on a great horse holds a rope attached to the legs of two prisoners who sit behind him facing the animal's tail; a drawn sword is in his right hand. Behind (right) is a haystack, on the top of which are two other Spaniards, much alarmed at the approach of a countryman who threatens them with his pitch-fork. A man and woman (left), both wearing coats with military facings, watch the scene; she points, he looks through a small telescope. In the foreground a sow and three young pigs are galloping. In the background is the sea, with fishing-boats."--British Museum online catalogue
