Description

A moustached man in a light head cloth, a dark sash and a loose jacket stands behind a low wooden box on which a butchered animal carcass is laid out, with a knife handle visible near the meat. Scrubby bushes frame the left and right edges, and a bare, stony slope rises behind him. Split firewood lies in the foreground.
