Description, scan 2: Five workers lay a pale concrete floor at Vouni. A man at the left bends over a wooden-framed box, a figure in the centre carries a metal box, and a woman in a white apron shovels beside a heap of gravel. Behind them are a large squared stone block, low walls, a flight of stone steps at right, and a building with trees on the hill.
