The picture shows a single-storey, rectangular house with a flat roof made of clay bricks. The roof is lower on the right-hand side of the picture. The long shadow of a tree falls on the wall of the house on the left of the picture. Here, a goat is tied to a wooden scaffolding, on which a vessel is also hung. Several people can be seen in front of the house. First, from left to right, are two little girls in light-coloured dresses. They are leaning back against the wall. They are followed at some distance by two boys who are wearing hip shorts and placing their hands in front of them. Right next to the boy is a small child squatting on the floor and behind him, in the lintel, a woman in a dress and headscarf. On the other side of the door are four men sitting on chairs wearing hats and suits. On the far right of the picture are two more women in floor-length, light-coloured dresses and headdresses. They have long scarves around their shoulders, the woman on the left is holding a small child in her arms.
