This is a drawing of a forest scene with human figures and a horse. The forest is dense with twisted trees. The human figures are engaged in various activities with exaggerated forms, suggesting urgency or turmoil. Some figures interact with a horse, while others appear to be struggling or seeking refuge. Objects like a checkered board and a mask are on the ground. The drawing uses shading and line work to create depth and movement.
