The painted image shows a man and a horse on a piece of land with grass and a tree. To the top-right is a tall, white rectangular form coming from the grass. At the top of the form is rectangular details. At the bottom of the form is a brown tree that grows straight up with pink and grey buds on the branches. A white horse stands behind the tree, facing away from the viewer. The horse is wearing a pink cloth on its back and blue strings around its face that wraps around the tree. In the center of the image is a small gap in the land that is grey. To the right is a man wearing a blue-green loose shirt, white pants, black shoes, and a black hat that covers his hair. He sits up on a grey form with his left leg down and his right leg up in front of his chest, his right arm wrapped around his knee. He faces towards the right towards the horse. Behind land is water. To the left are three vertical rows of Chinese writing in black ink with a small, red symbol at the bottom.
