In the middle distance stands a whitish two-storey building with arched windows and a small balcony, and beyond it a building with a bell tower and a long low tiled-roof range to the right. A low stone wall with rounded stones lines the road on the right.

Description, scan 2
A dirt road runs toward the viewer between a row of tall, dense trees on the left. On the right stands a white two-storey building with a balcony and arched windows, with a bell tower and tiled roofs behind it. A low stone wall edges the road in front of a long, low tiled building, and two small figures walk on the road in the distance.
