Engraving, part of a set of four small, rectangular prints with black backgrounds, depicting combat scenes, likely influenced by German masters, particularly the Beham brothers. This print, second of the series, depicts a combat between Troillus, on the left, and Pyrrhus, on the right, fighting on horseback, surrounded by several other fighting men on foot. The scene in the print is closely related to a print of the same subject, of similar dimentsions, by Hans Sebald Beham.
