Enoch Wood Perry, Jr.

National Gallery of Art

Two male figures and a horse are depicted in the image. The upper figure is standing upright and viewed from a side angle. He wears a hat, has sideburns, a light-colored shirt, a vest, and light-colored trousers. He stands on another person, who is supporting him. The lower figure sits on a cart that is being drawn by a donkey. The lower figure wears a vest, his legs are stretched forward, and he appears to be holding reins. The background is plain with sketch lines indicating parts of a cart and the donkey.
