A landscape showing a carriage being pulled by four white horses along a wide road from the left towards the viewer. A man in black sits in the centre of the carriage surrounded by his entourage. The carriage is followed by a man on horseback, with another rider galloping along the road behind. A man sits at the side of the road next to the horses begging, a stick leaning against the bank next to him. On the right, three men walk along the path next to the road, a dog running before them. Behind them is a field with cattle, with a church in the background. On the left, in the distance, a man crosses a small bridge. Two more men stand in conversation in the foreground, in the bottom left corner.
