A horizontally oriented drypoint print in black ink on off-white paper depicts a landscape with a man crouching by a trough on our left, facing a drinking horse. Behind them stands a building with a thatched roof and a central round tower. To our right, a small cart sits near a wooden shed. Fine hatched lines define the landscape. A handwritten signature, "A. Legros," appears in the bottom right margin.
