This painting shows a person riding a horse away from a small house with a pointed roof. The colors are mostly earthy—greens, browns, and blues—with quick, loose brushstrokes. The sky is a pale blue, and the background looks like a flat, open field. The rider’s back is turned, making them feel distant or hurried. The house behind them is simple, with just one small window visible. Look up Museum of Ethnography to see where this painting is kept.
