A horizontally oriented print in black ink on light paper depicts a figure in a dark uniform lying splayed and face up on the ground before a stone barricade. To the right, another person's legs extend into the frame. A military cap and rifle rest in the lower left. In the background, hazy vertical shapes suggest buildings. A signature and date, Manet 1871, are inscribed in the bottom left corner.
