Description

A village lane runs between whitewashed walls on the left and a rough stone wall on the right. A woman in a dark headscarf and a boy stand by the whitewashed wall, and a man in a wide-brimmed hat carries two large jars. A dog stands in the road, and a man in a hat leans on a stick against the stone wall, while a small child stands further back near an arched doorway.

A dog with dark and white patches stands in the centre.
