Image description:
A depiction, in thick black lines, of a rearing horse next to a conglomerate, roughly-human figure with straight legs and upthrust arms with spreading fingers. Circles decorated with wheel-like spokes are pressed against the sides of the figure. Numerous forked lines branch radiantly from the outsides of these circles. A woman lifts one leg as she stands on the horse. The outline of a small semi-human figure stands between the horse’s back legs and the figure with the circles.
