The image shows a rider on horseback galloping towards the viewer on a dirt road. The horizon is low in the composition, with a sky filled with dynamic, diagonal strokes. The lines are vigorous and expressive, emphasizing movement. The horse and rider are depicted with darker, denser cross-hatched strokes against a lighter sky. The color palette is monochromatic, using deep browns and blacks on a tan background.
