Summary: Print shows a scene at dueling grounds in a wooded area where a duel has taken place between a tattered buccaneer labeled "Spain" and "Medievalism" and Uncle Sam who is holding a sword labeled "19th century Enlightenment", on the ground between them is a broken sword labeled "Misrule". Two figures, possibly acting as seconds, one labeled "Austria" (Franz Joseph I) and the other representing Germany (William II), are supporting "Spain" between them, and a man carrying a doctors bag labeled "France" is rushing from behind to attend to the wounded man. John Bull and "Japan" (Meiji) are standing behind Uncle Sam.
