This is a drawing of a jousting scene. The drawing depicts two armored knights on horseback engaged in a jousting match. They are both clad in ornate armor, one with antler-like adornments on the helmet and the horses are equally elaborately covered with decorative cloth. Wooden lances are clashing, with one lance appearing broken upon impact. The background features a wooden barrier separating the jousting lane, with some notes or annotations visible on the page.
