Description

A large tree with dense, dark foliage and a thick trunk shades the ground beneath it. A man in a light shirt and hat sits on a folding chair beside a wooden crate, and a second chair stands at the right. The open, dry ground is covered with sparse scrub, with low hills behind and a small heap of stones at the left edge.
