This is a drawing of a horse rearing under an overturned cart. The scene shows the horse in motion with its front legs raised, head tilted, and mouth open. Above the horse is an upturned cart with visible wheels and axles. The background is simple with faint lines and a few small birds. The sketchy lines create an energetic and dramatic atmosphere.
