A convoy of German prisoners, on foot, passing a French general and his escort, mounted, on the highway; the latter salute the captives with military politeness, the officers by raising their caps, the cuirassiers by the ordinary gesture. Painted in 1875 by commission from Mr. Samuel Hawk from a sketch submitted by the artist.
