This is a drawing of a jousting match between two armored figures on horseback. The image captures a moment in a joust, with two armored figures on horses clashing. One figure rides a black and white horse and is dressed in blue and white armor, with a feathered helmet. The other figure is in red and green drapery, having been unseated. The scene is framed by a simple line border, and the paper has a slightly aged appearance, suggesting the drawing could be from an earlier historical period. The fine lines and shading give a sense of movement to the image.
