Object description
In the foreground of the work, one can see two figures on horseback, namely a man and a woman. A gentleman is depicted with a large mustache; a full-faced image of the man is turned three quarters to the viewer's right. He is wearing a brown camisole with a blue bow around his neck; on his head there is a black top hat. The right hand is raised in front of him at chest level. A man is sitting on a brown horse with a white mark on the snout. To his left there is a woman on a white horse. She is looking at the viewer. She is wearing a black hat with black ribbons at the back, a black long dress, and a gray camisole with a white collar put over it. The left arm is bent in front of her at a waist level. A view of the sky and a group of trees in the right corner of the work serve as the background of the drawing.
