This is a painting of a stable interior featuring several animals and figures preparing for an outing. The scene is set in a rustic barn with wooden beams and hay scattered on the ground. A horse stands prominently towards the center, fully saddled and ready, while another horse feeds from a haystack in the background. Two dogs are also present, one being petted. The dim interior is lit by light streaming through an open window, illuminating a cat perched on the windowsill. A broom can be seen resting against the wall.
