Project or Exhibition: Visual Description Project
Two riders gallop through a landscape with a brown dog in the lower left corner. On the left side, a man wearing a red robe with gold gloves, a gold collar, and white boots rides a beige horse, which has all four legs off the ground. He blows a brown horn that he holds to his mouth with his left hand. He has a yellow bow on his back and a yellow quiver of arrows on the back of his saddle. His horse covers the back half of the horse behind him. That other rider, who is on the right side, wears a green robe with a red collar and a yellow bow on his back. He raises his right arm before him with his index finger pointed up in the air and turns his head to look back at the other man. His horse is reddish-brown and it only has two legs lifted off the ground.
