The sculpture depicts a woman riding side-saddle on a horse. The woman is adorned with a flowing dress, and a bonnet or headpiece covers her head. The horse is depicted in a dynamic pose, with one front leg raised. The sculpture is crafted from a dark material, likely bronze, giving it a deep, dark brown or black color with a slightly reflective surface. This dark finish accentuates the detailed textures of the clothing and the anatomy of the horse. The sculpture stands on a rectangular base.
