A considerable crowd gathers as a stubborn horse stalls a wagon, despite attempts to move it. A figure with cloth over the horse’s eyes and a tiptoeing effort fails to propel the animal, while a bystander’s whispered intervention seems to entertain the crowd. The driver resumes, and the horse continues to stand, prompting the lesson that diverting the animal’s attention rather than forcing motion may succeed.
