This is a drawing of two armored figures on horseback. The drawing depicts two knights in full armor, both mounted on horses, in what appears to be a moment of contact or a jousting match. The knight on the left is clad in a green and intricately patterned armor, with their horse adorned in matching green barding. The knight on the right wears armor and is draped in a contrasting striped pattern of a dark shade. The poses of the knights and horses suggest action and movement, as though captured mid-clash. The drawing's details emphasize medieval armor and textiles.
