Sentry covering the pan of his musket with two fingers to prevent sparks

A soldier on guard, full-length, facing right, holding a musket (a specific type of firearm) with his left hand at the fork of the furket (musket fork) on which the barrel rests. The lit match lies on the hammer (part of the firing mechanism) of his musket. With the index and middle finger of his right hand he covers the pan (the powder reservoir) of his musket to protect the powder from sparks of the match. This print is part of the series of 43 numbered prints of musketeers from the Wapenhandelinghe.
