In the upper image, a hunchback woman, sitting on the base of a pillar in a large building and holding a distaff in her left hand, examines the palm of another hunchback standing in front of her, his hat in his other hand.

The larger of the two boys holds his opponent by the hair while raising in his right arm a distaff from which falls a spindle, unrolling the thread. The smaller boy, on the left, holds the other's arm, ready to stub him with a sabre he holds in his right hand

In the upper image, two hunchbacks, dressed in 17th century costume walk to the left in a sagging gate following each other.
