Several women in robes, some inside a building, others by a large tree
Detailed Description
The vertical image depicts several figures within and around a building, with a large tree on the right. The color palette is primarily warm browns, golds, and muted greens, with accents of red. In the upper left quadrant, a section of a building is visible, featuring a dark brown wall with a lighter grid-patterned screen or window. A small red lantern hangs from the top left. To the right, a large, gnarled tree trunk with dark, dense foliage and small, dark berry-like clusters extends from the top edge, curving downwards along the right side of the composition. Within the building, in the upper central area, three women are depicted. The leftmost woman stands, facing right, wearing a light-colored robe with red trim. Next to her, a woman is seated or kneeling, looking down at a low, dark brown table. She wears a light robe with red and gold details. To her right, another woman is seated on a raised platform, facing left, engaged with an object on the table. Her garment is predominantly red and gold. Below this group, in the lower central area, a fourth woman is seated or kneeling, facing right, looking down at an object held in her hands. She wears a light-colored robe with red and gold accents. The background behind her shows a continuation of the grid pattern. In the lower left, a fifth woman stands on a set of steps, facing right. She holds a tray or shallow bowl and wears a light-colored robe with a long, flowing red sash. At the very bottom left, a small figure, possibly a child, in a red garment is partially visible, appearing to interact with the ground. The lower right corner is filled with dense, dark green foliage from the tree or bushes.
