Le tableau représente un cheval suspendu à l'envers sur la pente abrupte d'une falaise sablonneuse. Son corps est tendu et ses jambes pointent vers le haut, ce qui suggère qu'il est tombé et qu'il est maintenant suspendu dans une position dangereuse. Au pied de la falaise, deux petits personnages le regardent. Les couleurs vives et la texture détaillée de la falaise ajoutent à l'effet dramatique de la scène.

Army officers invited him to capture their engaging and often incredible stories. From tales, he painted Indians Playing Bison or the cruel Indian Punishment.
