To the right, tall curved plants or reeds rise beside a seated or kneeling figure wearing layered clothing and a hat. On the left a built structure with rounded roofs sits among bushes and trees, and a small cluster of seated figures appears in a shaded arch above. The sky is rendered with parallel horizontal lines and a stylized cloud formation above the two figures.
