Composition in black tones, sepia and white. Tangled and intersecting rapid lines.

The animal is standing, has the head turned slightly to the right looking up ears, open eyes and long snout. The neck is long and wide and the loin is slightly curved, lying in the back room, tail straight and down. Tangled and intersecting rapid lines suggest the animal's coat.
