In the painting we see a group of people in historical costumes. Five people are in strange poses with some kind of sticks between their legs, reminiscent of playing on imaginary horses. Their clothes are medieval style and they are wearing different headgear. The characters' faces express different emotions. The scene is set in the countryside with a road and walls of houses visible. The work is humorous and full of detail.
