It's from the Miroir Du Cyclisme. The likenesses of Merckx and Thevenet are fantastic, meanwhile poor old De Vlaeminck is looking on (as referee) as Merckx and Maertens scrap, and the "Belgian Relief" approaches from the North East... Hinault looks as if he's about to jump into the ring and flatten the pair of them, which is about right...
