DescriptionThis is a coloured drawing of a powerful looking farm horse with a man riding bare back on it. The horse is harnessed for a plough. The horse is in front of a sand coloured building with small elongated green windows. There is a door opening just under the terracotta roof, but it is not at ground level and there is no sign of a steps or ladder up to the door. The horse and the rider are completely monochromatic, shaded and highlighted in a light beige.
