The artwork depicts a scene in which a hooded and caped figure rides a horse through a shadowy, rocky path, led by two similarly cloaked individuals. The composition is rich in detail, emphasizing the flowing lines and dramatic tension in the forms of the horse and its riders. The overall monochromatic palette underscores the somber and mysterious atmosphere of the illustration, drawing viewers into a compelling story.
