DescriptionA man stands in a two-wheeled cart drawn by a running horse. He wears a coat, pants, and top hat; he holds a whip in his right hand and the reins in both hands. A woman is seated beside him. She wears a dress with a lace collar, bell sleeves and undersleeves, and a straw bonnet trimmed with flowers and ribbons. She holds a single flower in her right hand. A wooden signpost in the left background reads: "15 Miles to New York!" Rocks and a leafless tree are nearby. A high stone wall is in the right background.
