This image appears to be a black and white etching or illustration, possibly from a historical print. The central focus is a person riding a horse to the left of the frame. The rider is dressed in a fashion that suggests the image is from a past era, wearing a cape or cloak and a hat with a brim, which conveys a sense of movement. Another rider, smaller and less detailed, is visible in the background, suggesting depth and context to the scene. They appear to be traversing rugged terrain, as indicated by the rough lines that depict the ground.

At the bottom of the image, there are texts which seem to be related to the creator and the publisher of the print. The first line "8 Stef. della Bella fecit" likely refers to the artist—Stefano della Bella—and "fecit" is Latin for "made" or "created." The next line, "Cum privilegio", indicates that the print was made with some special privilege or license. "N. Langlois exc" probably references Nicolas Langlois, who may have been the printer or publisher ("excudit" is commonly used in this context to mean "published by" or "printed by").

The numbers, letters, and words provide a glimpse into the provenance of this piece, likely dating back several centuries when such notations were commonly included on prints. The overall impression is one of a historical artwork, capturing a moment of everyday life or travel from the artist's time.
