The image shows two men, one on a horse and the other standing beside it. The man on the horse is in an elevated position, with a resolute facial expression, a beard, sharp eyebrows, a turban, a robe with ornate patterns, and sheathed knives in his waistband. The man standing beside the horse is shirtless with a muscular build, hair styled into two puffs, holding the horse's bridle in one hand and a stick or staff in the other. The setting behind them is sparsely depicted, with suggestive lines possibly indicating a landscape or horizon.
