Description: | This image is bordered in blue flecked with gold. The background is unpainted paper. The stallion has a small head, thick arching neck, concave back, rising rump and slim legs. It is prancing on the spot while the elderly groom holds an incense burner under the its nostrils. The stallion's belly and legs have been dyed red with henna to indicate that it has been in battle. The embroidered saddle cloth is very decorative and the head plume adds to the stallion's finery. There are areas of correction around the groom's feet and the stallion's tail.
