An elderly man in profile to the right sits heavily on a horse which plods slowly with lowered head. He holds the single rein awkwardly; in his right hand is a cudgel. He wears old-fashioned dress with round hat and high-quartered buckled shoes with spurs. Identified as Thomas Clark of Exeter Change.
