The painting shows a battle scene with horses and soldiers. It's an old print, made using a technique where a design is cut into wood. The artist likely made this to tell a story or show a big event, and it's interesting because it's a pretty detailed scene for an old print. You can learn more about this kind of art by looking into the technique: woodcut.
