Two male soldiers are shown, one bearded and one beardless. On the right, a man with a headdress of some kind wears a short kilt or skirt, and has one hand resting on his thigh and the other holding a long thin sword by the blade (one has to assume that this picture was not taken from life?). He is wearing tights, seemingly without shoes. To his left, a younger man, beardless, has an axe over his shoulder, and leans against a rock on which is drawn or carved a picture of somone riding a horse. In the background we see a stone circle.
