Description
Pen and ink illustration of a uniformed military officer facing left wearing a hat with an epaulette visible on his left shoulder with a rifle on his right shoulder, the bottom of which he is supporting with his right hand. He is wearing what look like spatterdashes and is marching with his right leg straight in the air in front of him. A goose behind him is facing left and strikes the same pose with its right foot in the air in front of it.
