"The stout Prince of Orange, in profile to the left, shuffles along the pavement, holding the arm of his thin secretary, Nassalin. His eye is almost closed, his right hand, holding a stick, is thrust in his coat pocket. Both are plainly dressed, wearing powdered hair with small tails, and round hats with broad brims. Nassalin is hunchbacked."--British Museum online catalogue

"Three grotesque and ill-matched soldiers charge rapidly and fiercely down the pavement. Their bayonets threaten three women who flee in terror, only legs, petticoats, and an upraised arm being visible on the extreme right. One soldier, very thin and ragged, wears a busby, the next, who is fat, wears a huge cocked hat with a damaged brim, the third, who is small, wears a peaked helmet with a spiky plume. The uniform coats with epaulettes are worn over frilled shirts and ragged breeches. Behind the three march others of the company, wearing busbies, and holding their muskets against their shoulders. In the background shop-windows are freely sketched."--British Museum online catalogue
