A vertically oriented color lithograph in thick black lines depicts a man with a light skin tone riding a horse. Facing left, he turns his head toward us, wearing a dark uniform and tall helmet. The light brown horse is defined by heavy black shadows, casting a dark silhouette onto the tan ground. Behind them, a tiered tan building with columns rises. The composition uses a limited palette of black, tan, and brown.
