The image depicts a mountainous scene with a winding staircase carved into the rock face. The staircase is made of stone and has many steps, leading up to a distant archway. Four people are shown on the stairs or on the rocks nearby. The people wear traditional clothing, including head coverings and robes in shades of red, blue, and brown. The rocks are light-colored and jagged. The background shows more rock formations and a hazy sky. The overall color palette is muted, with shades of brown, gray, and beige dominating the scene. A signature and some illegible text are visible at the bottom.
