The figure on the left wears a large hat with plumes, a tip of a long sword protrudes from under his cape. The figure on the right laughs as he points to his companion's back. Both have spurs attached to their boots. In the lower image, two figures travel in an open landscape, one on foot, the other, following him, on a donkey. The latter is holding a scroll in his left hand
