Description: A group of Indigenous and colonist men sit on wooden benches in a semi-circle. In front of the group, two Indigenous men kneel on the ground. Another man stands behind them holding a club in the air above the head of one of the men. The man kneeling is bleeding from the head from a previous blow. This illustration is identical to the one found on page 105 of Frankfurt 1591, but colored.
