Description

A barefoot woman in a dark headscarf and striped skirt holds a toddler on her hip in front of a wooden door set into a plastered stone wall. A young child in a light smock stands beside her, looking away from the camera. A large rounded stone leans against the wall at the right, and the ground is bare stone and earth.
