Abstract:
"A mounted hussar receives in his arms a pretty young woman who is climbing down from a high wall. She puts her face to his, and rests her hand on his shoulders while he supports her ample posterior. The horse, directed to the right, is almost knee-deep in water. A corner of a house among trees appears over the wall (right)."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state
