The male figure gestures with his proper left hand and points upwards. Two women are next to him. One woman is seated to his left and wears a tan head covering and red dress, the other woman is standing to his left and has dark hair and wears a red dress. The woman standing gestures to the left support. To the left in the background there is a woman balancing a pot on her head and another figure next to her.
