This painting shows a chaotic battle scene with many horses and men. The horses are rearing up and falling over, and the men are fighting with lances and swords. In the foreground, a white horse is falling over, and a man in armor is being thrown off. In the background, there are more horses and men fighting, and some trees and hills can be seen. The painting is done in tempera, which gives it a bright and vivid color. If you're interested in seeing more paintings like this, you might want to check out the work of Paolo Uccello.
