People with stones and tools at Ayios Iakovos

Description
Three men crouch and kneel in a shallow trench cut into pale earth, working with hand tools, while a fourth man in a pith helmet, belted jacket and boots stands at the edge looking on. Behind them lie a spoil heap, small wooden boxes and a low stone wall across a dry, open landscape of rolling hills. A tripod stands at the left edge.
