Deception

This silkscreen print depicts four soldiers standing around a single seated man. The four soldiers stand with drawn swords pointed at the seated man. Two of the soldiers, with their backs to the viewer, wear long black coats. The other two soldiers wear blue coats with white trim, grey pants, and tall black boots. All four soldiers wear dark bicorn hats. The seated figure wears a brown coat with gold trim, white pants and tall black boots. His head is bare, and he holds a sword in his left hand, pointed to the ground. He is sitting on a black, frame-like chair. He looks sideways to the soldier on his left. The image is surrounded by a wide white margin, with the chop mark of the print shop, Workshop Inc. in the lower left corner.
