Visual Description
Five young men stand in a windswept grassy field, each holding long wooden staves. Two figures in the foreground cross their staves as if sparring while three others watch or hold their staves upright behind them. Swallows fly across a pale sky above the group and rolling hills stretch into the distance. The scene is active and slightly chaotic, with movement in the figures' poses and the bending grass.
