The image depicts a pencil sketch of a horse's lower body and head. The horse faces left; its head is drawn in profile with the muzzle pointing left and slightly down. The horse's ears are pricked. A bridle with a noseband and cheek straps is on the horse's head. A saddle sits atop the horse's back, over a saddle blanket. The saddle has a pommel and a cantle. A girth strap runs under the horse's chest. The horse's front and back legs are visible, with the front legs on the left and the back legs on the right. The horse stands on a flat surface. The background includes a wall or fence with vertical and horizontal lines indicating posts and rails. The sketch is on a piece of paper that appears to be from a sketchbook; the edges are rough and there are three holes along the left edge.
