A soldier leans on a table behind which a man is counting money. To the left more soldiers. In the background troops on the move. Below the scene a blank margin. This print is part of a series of 16 prints (plus 2 unfinished prints) of the life of Ferdinando I de' Medici, intended as an addition to an already existing series of illustrations of the history of the Medicis.
