A diorama depicting a wartime scene with miniature soldiers. Several figures are positioned in front of wooden structures resembling trenches or bunkers, one labeled 'Command', and others marked 'Entry'. The soldiers are dressed in uniforms from the early 20th century, with some carrying rifles and one figure appearing to be carrying a wounded comrade. Sandbags and other military accessories are present, suggesting a battlefield setting. The background is a blue sky with indistinct vegetation.
