Description

Two men in jackets and a woman in a patterned dress sit on a stone-paved veranda under a timber roof supported by wooden posts. Rush-seated wooden chairs are set out, and a whitewashed wall with a shuttered window stands behind them. Trees fill the background beyond the open side of the porch, and the man on the right wears light trousers and boots.
