The image features an old drawing depicting a scene with men and horses. The scene shows several men on horseback and on foot. There are four horses present; one brown horse with a jockey on its back is being led by a man on the left, a white horse with two people on it appears in the middle, and a dark brown horse on the right with a man riding it. The men are dressed in 19th-century attire, including top hats, long coats, and boots. The background of the image has faint details.
