The scene depicts two zebras within an outdoor enclosure in Cidade da Maia, Portugal. A zebra occupies the left and central foreground, presented in a partial profile view, facing right with its head slightly lowered. Its black and white striped coat is clearly visible, and its mouth is slightly agape. A second zebra's hindquarters and posterior legs are visible in the mid-ground on the right, also displaying black and white stripes. The ground surface is composed of dry, yellow-brown hay and soil. A large, weathered log, partially covered in hay, rests horizontally in the lower right foreground. A smaller, light-colored stone is situated on the ground behind the foreground zebra's head. The background consists of a tall, light-colored fence with vertical bars, behind which a dense wall of green bamboo foliage is visible.
