Image description
The artwork depicts two main figures standing in an outdoor setting. On the right, a man is shown in full view, standing upright and wearing a long, dark coat with a white shirt underneath. He has grayish hair and is looking slightly to the side. Next to him is a woman, also standing upright, wearing a long, light gray dress with a white collar and cuffs. She has brown hair, styled and covered with a hat, and is looking downward. She holds a white object in her hands. In the background, there is a man seated on a ledge wearing a red coat, with a horse standing beside him. The setting is an architectural structure with arches and steps, painted in earthy tones. A dog or similar animal lies on the ground in front of the seated man.
