Detailed Description
The image displays a section of a painting set within a gold border. The background is a rich, speckled gold. The scene depicts multiple figures and a horse within a courtyard setting, framed by architectural elements and sparse greenery. In the upper portion, several buildings with dark gray, tiled roofs and green-paneled walls are visible, extending horizontally across the background. Below these structures, a white-walled courtyard unfolds. On the left, a figure in an orange, patterned robe sits on the ground, facing right. To their right, a prominent figure in a black robe and tall black hat stands, facing right with arms slightly extended. Further right, two figures in dark robes and hats are seated at a low, white table. Towards the right side of the courtyard, a brown horse with a black mane and tail rears up on its hind legs, facing left. A figure in a white robe and dark hat is mounted on its back, while another figure in a white robe stands beside the horse. A small, green pine tree with a gnarled trunk is positioned to the far right. In the foreground, several figures are seated on the ground: one in a blue robe on the left, two in green and orange patterned robes in the center, and two in white robes on the right. The painting employs distinct outlines and a vibrant color palette.
