Detailed Description
The image depicts an outdoor scene with numerous figures and pink-hued buildings. In the right foreground, a woman dressed in a dark brown or black habit with a white wimple kneels, supporting the upper body of a man lying on the ground. The man wears a red tunic and blue trousers. His head is slightly raised, and his eyes are closed. To the right of this pair stands a white horse, saddled with a dark teal blanket and bridle, facing left. Its head is slightly lowered. In the center, a group of approximately eight men stands together. They wear various colored robes and hats, including red, purple, and dark blue. One man in a prominent red robe and hat stands slightly forward, facing towards the kneeling woman. A brown dog lies on the ground in front of this group, facing right. To the far left, two men stand facing each other. One wears a light pink robe and a red hood, while the other wears a dark teal robe. The background is dominated by buildings rendered in shades of pink and light red. These structures feature arched doorways, rectangular windows, and architectural details such as pilasters and cornices. A darker building with a tall, narrow archway and a small image above it is visible on the far right, next to the horse. Green foliage is visible behind some of the buildings. The ground is a light, sandy color.
