Black and white photograph of a destroyed wagon. The wagon's wooden body is on its side on a dirt road. The wheels remain attached by a chain. A dead horse lies next to it on the road. A second horse's body is visible under the wagon's body. A third horse is lying on the left side of the road. Three men in dark clothing stand near the wagon on the road. A tree line borders the road on both sides. A large hill rises in the background. The sky is hazy. A large wooden crate sits on the embankment to the left of the road. The ground around the wagon and the hill are littered with pieces of debris.
