Painted in opaque watercolour and gold on paper, Ranjit Singh, wearing a dark green coat and trousers and a yellow turban, rides a white stallion with a red saddle-cloth edged with gold. He faces right. An attendant in green turban and yellow jama holds a red parasol flecked with gold over the maharaja. The landscape is sketchily indicated by means of a stippled green foreground with clumps of plants, and a pale blue background.
