"A duellist and his second stand together, both trembling, in a sandy space among trees. In the middle distance (right) his antagonist marches up aggressively, arm-in-arm with an obese, truculent second. On the left a fat surgeon waits, holding a basket of instruments. In the background is a waiting coach (right)."--British Museum online catalogue
