The lower scene shows a brick-lined arched tunnel opening set into an earthen and stone cut, with several men standing on the arch and inside the tunnel near a small cart and rail track, rubble and loose bricks scattered at the base of the arch, and a reflective pool of water in the foreground mirroring parts of the arch and figures.
