57. Halt of three Cavaliers and a Lady at a sutler’s booth.
One of the former, mounted on a bright roan horse, with his
back to the spectator, is raising his hat to salute the hostess,
who is pouring out a glass of liquor; another has dismounted
from a grey horse, and stands in the centre of the group,
blowing a trumpet; the lady rides a roan palfry, has a whip
in her hand, and is seen in a front view. At a little distance
off, on the opposite side, are two men watering their horses
in a pond.
