The image is a sepia-toned, two-photograph collage. The top photograph shows a man on horseback and another horse on a dirt road with a rocky hillside behind. The man on horseback wears a light-colored suit, pants, and a pith helmet. The horse he rides is dark-colored with a white blaze on its face and white markings on its feet. The second horse is dark-colored, tethered to the first horse, and faces right. The bottom photograph shows a family of six posing indoors. An older man in a dark suit sits on a chair on the left; an older woman in a dark dress sits on a sofa on the right. Three children sit on a low bench between them: two young girls in dresses and one toddler standing. A young boy stands behind the bench. Behind them is a table with a vase of flowers and curtains. The family photograph has a rug beneath their feet.
