Eine Milizversammlung

Thomas Rowlandson, wahrscheinlich 1799

This is a painting of a group of men in an ornate room engaged in discussion and reviewing a large map. The scene depicts several men gathered around a table in a richly decorated interior. One man, seated in an armchair, is studying a map presented by an attendant who is rolling it out on the floor. The room is furnished with chairs, a table set with glassware, and the back wall is adorned with crossed swords and firearms above the fireplace. The atmosphere suggests a sense of deliberation or planning.
