The man has long curly hair, wearing a goatee and dark wide brimmed hat tipped with a feather in the back. He stands in profile with left foot forward, left elbow on hip, head turned toward the viewer. The horse in profile faces left with its long curly main and its head lowered, lifting its left front hoof forward. The attendant has one hand on the top of the horse and holds a jacket in his other arm. Behind them a full tree and distant coastline, and lush plants in foreground right.
