This is a drawing of a horse in a circus setting. The drawing features a horse standing on its hind legs, with flowing outlines. The horse is adorned with feathers or decorative embellishments on its head. To the right side of the image, a pair of individuals hold a rope that outlines the circle of the circus ring. The background is suggestive of an arena with minimalistic lines.
