Description

An arched walkway with pale walls and a timber-beamed ceiling runs into the distance, and a man in a long dark robe walks along its floor in the middle distance. Through a far arched opening, another arcade with small arches is visible. On the right, a wooden chair stands in bright patches of sunlight falling through the arches onto the paving.

Description, scan 2
A figure in a long dark robe and tall hat walks across a stone-flagged gallery under a flat wooden beamed ceiling. Round-headed arches line the right side and open onto a sunlit courtyard with more arches beyond. Wooden chairs stand by the railing at right, and sunlight falls in patches across the floor.
