Item description from the inventory book:

In the foreground there is a meadow covered with light young greenery. In the distance on the left there is a haystack; a little farther on — a rider galloping on a horse. On the right side of the graphic sheet - a large green tree, behind it - dense shrubbery. One third of the sheet is occupied by an image of the sky with cumulus clouds.
