Description

Open, flat scrubland stretches under a pale sky, with a large tree filling the right edge of the frame. Four people are spread across the dry ground: one kneels at left, apparently working on the soil, while three stand in light shirts and dark trousers. A dark bundle lies on the ground to the right, and a thin pale stick stands at the far left.
