This is a painting of a decorative textile design featuring a central horse motif. The artwork depicts a curtain-like textile with a dominant central panel showcasing an ornate horse standing on a grassy patch, with intricate detailing on its body. Surrounding the horse are vertical bands of deep purple adorned with designs of roses and horse heads. Red borders frame the textile. The texture is enhanced by fringe detailing, adding to its ornate appearance. In the lower right corner, a smaller inset panel displays a repetitive geometric pattern. Additional detailed ornamentation is present in the textile, with a subtle geometric pattern running vertically at the seams between bands.
