The scene depicts a stable stall in Estaimpuis, Belgium. A single horse, exhibiting a reddish-brown coat with distinct white and roan markings on its hindquarters and a light-colored mane and face blaze, stands prominently in the foreground. Its head is lowered towards the ground, engaging with a thick layer of golden straw that covers the entirety of the stall floor. To the left of the frame, an aged, whitewashed masonry wall shows signs of wear, adjoining a dark metal gate or barrier structure. Extending behind the horse and towards the right, a dark wooden or metal slatted partition forms part of the enclosure, topped by dark vertical metal bars. Through these upper bars, a light-colored animal, possibly another horse, is partially discernible in an adjacent area, obscured slightly by a blue fabric covering. A green fabric bag is suspended from the metal bars in the mid-ground. Strong, directional natural light illuminates the straw and parts of the horse, creating pronounced shadows on the bedding. No human figures are present.
