The sculpture features two mounted figures engaged in an energetic interaction. Each figure is astride a rearing horse, with one horse standing on its hind legs and the other appearing entangled. The human figures are depicted in detailed attire and active poses, with one possibly holding a long object. The sculpture is composed of dark, patinated material, giving it a rich, earthy brown tone with greenish highlights. It is mounted on a textured base resembling rocky terrain, suggesting an outdoor or battlefield setting filled with movement.
