On Guard: The Girl Who Fought Back
The picture reminds some of "The Princess Bride" movie. The story takes place in England in 1415 or the middle 1800's.
This is just a contest but they are deadly serious. Baroness Julia is very independent and out to prove herself. She is about 27 or 28 years old. Her full name is Baroness Julia Chocolate. Baron Frank Zieggler, who is older than the Baroness is about 40 years old and was challenged by her.
The man in the back is Arnold. He is a friend. Fredrick is the man in the center. Charlotte, who is Julia's best friend, is also watching. She doesn't believe this should be taking place. Julia is engaged to Fredrick. Frank and Charlotte are dating.
This group of friends is blue blood or aristocrats. They are dressed to well to be commoners. They were hanging out talking when the challenge came. This could be a play or movie but the friends had gotten together when the challenge came.
Shuffling of their feet can be heard. The clicking of the swords can also be heard. Beethovan music is playing in the background.
Julia will fight all the men and win. Charlotte doesn't like them fighting because her fiance is not winning. She knows he will challenge Julia again because he can't loose. Even though Frank is larger, she is still winning. He is unhappy with loosing so he is holding onto her sword with his left hand.
After this is over, they will sit around and laugh about it. They will then decide what to do next. Julia says, "I told you so".
Now her boyfriend will be scared of her. She will have bragging rights that she has beat all the men.
