Three figures and three animals, including two riders, in a procession on a light background
Detailed Description
The image is a horizontal painting on a light brown, aged background, depicting three figures and three animals in a procession, moving from left to right. On the far left, a figure with light skin and dark hair is partially visible behind a large ox. This figure wears a light-colored, draped garment, exposing the right shoulder and arm, and holds a light-colored object in their raised right hand and a thin stick vertically in their left. In front of this figure, a large, dark brown ox with prominent horns and distinct facial features faces right, its body robust and legs in motion. Riding on the ox's back is a second figure, also facing right, with light skin and dark hair covered by a dark, tall hat. This rider wears a long, pale green robe with wide sleeves, and a lighter-colored sash. Their right hand holds a thin stick extending towards the ox's head. To the right of the ox and its rider, a smaller, dark brown donkey walks towards the right, having short ears and a slender body. Walking behind the donkey is a third figure with light skin, a dark beard, and a dark, tall hat. This figure wears a long, loose-fitting, pale orange or light brown robe. They hold a long, thin stick vertically in their right hand. Over their left shoulder, a pole extends horizontally, from which two objects hang: a dark, rounded flask on the right and a lighter-colored, bucket-like container on the left. The figures and animals are rendered with outlines and washes of color, appearing somewhat faded against the plain background.
