Kicking up dust as they round a sharp corner of some rocks and small shrubs, the two cowboys on horseback race one another as a casual pastime to take a break from their difficult work out in the wilderness and fields of the American West. Rendered in careful detail, the sheen of the horses' coats are clearly visible, as are the whites of their eyes as they rush across the dirt path. Wearing fleece and fur jackets, the two cowboys appear to be dressed well for the cold landscape around them, evident from the ice-bitten limbs of plants and trees in the forest from which they have came.
