This is a painting of an outdoor street scene with figures in historical attire and horses. The scene depicts a group of individuals dressed in traditional clothing, with at least two of them mounted on horses. One horse carries an additional figure gesturing animatedly, and a small animal can be seen atop one of the figures. The setting features a building with arched windows and a stone entrance. A star symbol adorns a panel on the building. The group seems to be engaged in conversation or discussion.
