The painting depicts four primitive horses (Propalaeotherium) – two at the top and two at the bottom – with the one on the top left looking at the viewer, whilst the one on the right is feeding on the ground; of the two at the bottom, one is running to the left and the other to the right; all the animals have dark legs and muzzles, their manes are short and black, their bellies are light in colour, and the rest of their bodies are a beautiful, rich brown
