A horizontally oriented lithograph in gray tones depicts carousel horses within a fragmented composition of overlapping geometric planes. On the lower left, a horse head faces right. Centrally, a large horse and a smaller horse leap toward the right edge. Sharp angles and vertical poles intersect the stippled forms. The work features a grainy texture and varied shading, creating a sense of dynamic, mechanical movement against the light background.
