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. In his left hand, in addition to the butt of the musket, he also holds a burning fuse and a furket (musket fork). It is therefore (virtually) the same position as the one shown in the second print of the series. Bottom right first erroneously numbered 2, corrected in 34. Plate 34 in the instructions for handling the musket: Brief enseignement, sur les pourtraitz figurez, touchant le droit maniement
