The image shows bold yellow and black abstract shapes with a series of figures arranged in a procession-like scene. The central figure is a horse with an exaggerated geometric pattern resembling a knight or rider with a square shield hoisted above. To the right, a large figure with a flowing black beard sits in a carriage that appears almost throne-like. Several other figures, wearing armor-like shapes and holding spears, appear below. Above them hovers a bird-like shape with outstretched wings.
