Description

A woman in a pale dress and sun hat stands on a barrel and leans forward with one arm raised. A man in a dark suit and cap stands with his back to the viewer beside her, and a child in a light hat crouches in front of a barrel. A person in a pith helmet and long coat watches from the left. Behind them, a slope of bare earth rises to dense bushes, and a dry-stone wall runs along the right.
