| Commentary | Very accurate representation of the chain of galley slaves escorted by officers on foot with swords and lances and on horseback with muskets.
Detailed figures, with different personalities, gestures and expressions; notice the second galley slave, melancholic and sad; the fourth, a venerable white-bearded man; and the fifth, a young don juanesco man. Excellent drawing and engraving. |
