The image depicts an illustration of a picnic in the mountains. A group of men are gathered below on the lower half of the page; they wear robes and head coverings. The background shows a mountainous landscape with sparse trees. A cauldron sits over an open flame. A herd of goats climb the mountain slope above. The illustration is rendered on aged beige paper with a gold, black and red border. The visual style suggests traditional manuscript art.
