A cream colored page with various sketches of figures and horses, some oriented upside down or sideways

At least fourteen individual figure studies in pencil are evenly scattered around a page. Some of the images include: at center, a man in a tailcoat waving a top hat over his head, leaning back while seated on a running horse, two studies of gesturing hands at center left and upper left, a racing horse pulling a chariot at lower right, and at top center an upside down sketch of a running horse turning its head backward. Other studies of horses, top-hatted riders and chariot riders appear alongside these.
