The Jockey

Edgar Degas

Cleveland Museum of Art

A charcoal drawing on beige-colored paper depicts a jockey sitting on a horse. The jockey wears a cap and sits astride the horse, who faces right. The jockey's body faces away. The horse's front left leg is raised. The artist's signature appears in the bottom-left corner in red paint. The paper is rough and frayed around the edges.
