(Study of a Scene at the Horse Races)
c. 1900

Sketch of a group of people in period clothing, with women in white dresses and men in dark suits, gathered around a horse-drawn carriage. A figure in a white spotted outfit sits atop the carriage, and a small structure with a bell on top is visible in the background. The scene is rendered in a loose, expressive style with a limited color palette, predominantly in shades of black, white, and brown.
