Soldier carrying his musket on his shoulder (no. 34), c. 1600, A soldier, full-length, to the right, holding a musket (a particular type of firearm) resting on his left shoulder (no. 34), c. 1600.

Plate 34 in the instructions for handling the musket: Shortest instruction for the figures, so much concerneth the right use
