The image shows a series of nine panels arranged in a 3x3 grid, each containing a simplified, monochromatic depiction of a horse and jockey in various stages of a race or performance. The horses and riders are represented in a loose, expressive style with black paint on a white background, emphasizing motion and action. The top left panel shows a horse stretched out in mid-gallop without a rider. The next panel to the right depicts a horse with a jockey, who appears to be falling off. In the third panel of the top row, the horse and jockey are completely airborne, separated, with the jockey flying above the horse. In the middle row, the leftmost panel shows the jockey seemingly reseated on the horse and in the saddle, while the central panel depicts a horse and jockey in a more conventional racing pose, riding swiftly to the right. The third panel in this row shows the jockey being thrown off the horse again. The bottom row begins with a panel showing the horse and rider racing in profile, the middle panel depicts the jockey once more awkwardly positioned or possibly falling off the horse, and the final panel shows the horse standing still with the jockey next to it, possibly suggesting the conclusion of the race or performance. Over the image, in the margin above the grid, the phrase "THE FIX WAS IN." is written, which typically means that the outcome was predetermined or manipulated. The erratic and humorous sequence of events depicted in the panels might imply a horse race where the results were rigged, with the comedic depiction of the rider's struggles serving as a visual metaphor for the phrase written above.

This image appears to be a sequence of sketches depicting horses in motion. The title "The fix was in." suggests the image is meant to convey a sense of movement, speed, and possibly a racing or competitive equestrian event. The sketches show horses in various galloping and jumping poses, arranged in a grid-like format. The image has a black and white, minimalist aesthetic, with the horses rendered as silhouetted forms against a plain background. The overall impression is one of dynamic action and energy.
