A man stands with a horse, holding the saddle in his hand looking to the left of the picture plane. The man and horse are stand-alone figures in the image with no background. The proportion of the figures in the image are balanced, with the man standing a little higher than the horse. Neither are extremely large and fit quite well within the space of the paper. This is a line dependent work being just in pencil, the artist uses line and shading to create the depth and add dimension to the image.
