The image shows a rocky terrain with a wooden bridge leading to a figure on horseback. The scene is depicted from a slightly elevated perspective, with a large rock formation dominating the left side. The sky is suggested by lighter and darker shading in the upper right. The brushstrokes are expressive, creating texture on the rocks and trees. The color palette is monochrome, emphasizing stark contrasts and bold shapes.
