Detailed Description
A horizontal painting on a light, aged beige background features a rider on a galloping horse, aiming a bow to the left. The central figures occupy the middle and lower-left portions of the composition. The rider, positioned slightly left of center, wears light-colored robes, possibly white or cream, with visible red sashes or ties around the waist and arms. Their dark hair is pulled back, with two long, dark braids or ribbons extending behind their head. The rider's body is angled forward, with both arms extended, drawing a light-colored bow with a red-tipped arrow. A dark object, possibly a quiver or sword hilt, is visible on their back. The horse, dark brown with lighter tan or reddish-brown markings on its belly and legs, is depicted in a dynamic galloping pose, with all four legs extended. Its mane and tail are dark. The horse's head is turned slightly towards the viewer, with its mouth open. A saddle or patterned blanket with red elements is visible on its back. The background is a plain, light beige or tan, showing signs of age with small dark specks. Several red seals (stamps) are present. A large, square red seal with intricate characters is in the upper right corner. Two circular red seals are in the upper center, one directly above the rider's head containing characters that appear to include "皇" and "有", and another slightly to its left with less distinct characters. A faint, rectangular red mark is in the upper left, and a smaller, faint red seal is in the lower right.
