Description

A man in a dark jacket leans over a wooden crate and table covered with carved stone heads and busts, some bearded and wearing headdresses. A small standing figure in a helmet-like cap stands near the centre, and several heads sit in the front row. Behind them are a rough stone wall on the left, a building with a tiled roof and barred windows, and a large wooden barrel on the right.
