Brief Description

A bearded man on a rearing horse holds a spear, with other figures and an animal

Detailed Description

A monochrome drawing on light-colored paper features a central man on horseback. The man, bearded and wearing a helmet and armor, sits upright on a rearing horse. He holds a long, slender spear vertically in his right hand, with his left hand raised. The horse is highly decorated with intricate patterns on its bridle, saddle, and a large, ornate blanket covering its back. Below the horse's raised front legs, a smaller figure is shown in a crouched or fallen position, holding a small, curved weapon. To the left of this figure, a large animal, possibly a bull or buffalo, is depicted with its head lowered, appearing to be in motion or struggle. Another figure lies prone on the ground in the lower right corner of the composition. In the upper right, faint, unfinished sketches of two additional figures are visible: one lying horizontally and another showing a head and torso. The drawing is rendered in fine lines, with some areas showing minimal shading.
