This sophisticated Aristocratic painting features a young boy, with receding hairline, in military pageantry style pinkish red uniform along with a sword. With his right hand he is extending a small branch to a Doe deer who is facing away from the viewer, the painter has chosen to emphasize the buttocks of the deer for some reason.
