The image is a collage of three smaller photos showcasing a group of people engaged in various activities in what appears to be a library or office setting. In the largest photo on the left, several individuals gather around a wooden table. They are focused on material that one person, wearing a green plaid shirt, is flipping through. In the background, banners and signs are visible, including one for the students' union. The room is well-lit, with fluorescent lights on the ceiling. In the two smaller photos on the right, different angles of the scene are shown. The top-right image captures a closer view of individuals standing and observing. The bottom-right image shows a meeting, with two people seated at a table reviewing documents. The logo of the University of Wales Trinity Saint David and another logo for "Books & Beyond" are present at the bottom corners.

The image depicts a group of people on horseback traveling along a rocky path in a mountainous landscape. In the foreground, there are six riders on horses with varying colors, dressed in historical clothing, suggesting a scene from the past. The central figure wears a green coat and a feathered hat, gesturing energetically with an arm raised. Flanking this person are others in earth-toned attire, each handling their horse. Off to the left, a man sits on a rock beside the path, observing the riders. The background showcases a serene mountain range with varying shades of blue and gray, while a few more figures on horseback are visible in the distance against the scenic backdrop. Below the path, a small stream runs through the rocky terrain.
