This painting shows a man on a white horse. He's wearing a black hat, a white shirt, and a long gray coat. He's also wearing black boots and gloves. The horse is white with a black mane and tail. The man is holding the reins of the horse in his left hand. The background is dark and cloudy. The man is sitting on the horse in a relaxed way. He's not holding onto the horse's neck or anything else. The horse is standing still, looking to the left. The man is looking straight ahead.
