Overhead view of a funeral float. The drawing is in landscape format. It is framed in ink. Traces of watercolor and inscriptions are visible in the margins.
A funeral procession is depicted in the foreground. It moves from left to right on a paved road. A chariot, drawn by six horses, carries the deceased on a bed topped by a canopy. Black-clad figures follow the carriage.
