Description: | Monochrome print of a medieval battle scene. Soldiers in full suits of armour with lances are on horseback at left, facing right, as are bugle players. A large flag is held aloft at centre. The central figure, also on horseback, has less armour but wears a cape and a large headdress. His horse rears up and he holds his sword high. Only one knight is approaching on horseback from the other direction and he is mid-fight with another knight. There are broken swords and pieces of armour on the ground and a body lies at left. In the background, on a hilly landscape, are numerous other soldiers with weapons. Across bottom in pencil 'The Rout of San Romano 5/50 Argaret Bryan/after Pa[ul] Uccello'. 'NCAM' impression in circle at brc.
