A horizontal cyanotype photograph in a monochrome Prussian blue tone depicts a group of about nine people and a horse in a wooded, sun-dappled outdoor setting. In the foreground, two metal pots or cans and textured baskets or hampers rest on the ground as if from a picnic. Behind the container, three people stand together while the others sit or lounge in various positions; most wear wide-brimmed hats, one individual on the right wears a dark vest over a light-colored long-sleeved shirt. To the far right, a dark-colored horse stands in profile, facing left toward the group. The background is filled with dense foliage, with bright sunlight filtering through the canopy to create high-contrast highlights on the ground and figures. Hand-written text appears on the white border above the image, reading: "1980.97.9-PIC ROBERT HOCHSTADTER (?) + FRIENDS." A small grayscale strip is visible along the bottom edge of the print.
