This is a drawing of a horse-drawn cart. The cart is being pulled by a small horse and is carrying four figures. Each figure has distinct facial characteristics. The drawing emphasizes contrast between the heads and the body of the horse. The scene takes place in a minimalistic landscape with simple lines and shading in the background. The title at the top indicates a festive theme associated with a neighboring village.
