The image depicts a black and white drawing of a horse. The horse is shown in profile, facing right. The horse's head is tossed back, and its mane is blown back. Its front right leg is raised. The horse's body is muscular, with defined muscles visible under its skin. The horse's tail is long and flowing. The background is a shaded area with dark and light sections. There are some grasses and foliage at the bottom left of the image. The drawing is signed and dated in the bottom left corner. The horse appears to be in motion, as if it is running or rearing up.
