Description for blind and low-vision visitors
A large mythical horse rears up vertically, filling a black background. Its open jaws show pointed teeth and a wide red eye. The body is densely patterned in lilac, orange, blue and red, with rows of fine hatched lines, dotted scrolls, flower rosettes and a star motif on the haunch. Flame-like mane and tail spread outward in thin coloured strokes. Slender green and reddish palm fronds rise along both edges in the naïve folk style. A white signature and the date appear at lower left.
