This painting depicts Marie-Antoinette riding a horse in a forest, wearing a long white dress and a large hat. She is surrounded by trees and other people on horseback. The scene is set in a natural outdoor environment. In the foreground, a dog is running in front of the horse, while another dog is standing to the side.
