Description

A stone building with a tiled roof and shuttered windows stands on the left, with a larger building behind it that has pointed windows and a slender tower. Beneath a long row of pointed arches, several sacks lie on the bare dirt yard. Two men stand near the arches, one in light clothes and a hat, the other slightly to his right.
