DescriptionScene of three people returning to a village. In the foreground on the lower right there is a group of gray and brown rocks. In the center of the image there are three figures wearing black clothes and white head coverings. The figure closest to the foreground faces to the right and carries a beige sack over the right shoulder. The village has brown and white buildings with blue and gray roofs. Chimney-like protrusions extend up from the walls to the sky from some of the buildings. The sky is blue but is mostly covered with puffy white clouds.
