A pen and ink drawing showing cavalry officers having a disagreement. The figure in the centre is shown facing left in profile and is looking angrily at a man about to follow two other officers down a staircase to the left. An officer is shown behind to the right, watching the disagreement and smiling maliciously. All five figures are wearing military uniform with medals on their chests and spurs on their boots. A large crowd is shown in a room with a chandelier behind, possibly at a ball. A single pen and ink line border is shown around the edge of the image.
