Description

Two men sit or stand in excavation trenches in the foreground, one looking towards the camera, with heaped pale and dark earth around them. A third man in light clothing stands on a mound under a leafy tree that spreads across the top of the view. A dark flat board leans at the lower left edge of the trench.
