Description

Two large domed kilns, plastered in a cracked clay surface, stand in a yard, each with an arched opening at its base. A man in a light shirt stands between them holding a jar, and a woman in a long apron stands at the left edge. Large pots sit on the ground at the right and near the kilns, with tiled houses behind.
