He holds a bundle on a stick over his shoulder, with a white cloth covering the bundle, and wears a white turban. A woman in a blue top with gold polka dots and a long red skirt walks while touching her face with her right hand. A dark stream runs vertically through the center, with green grass and white flowers on both sides, and a palm tree on the left. Pink and purple flowers bloom on a vine extending from the stream. The top half contains black text on a beige background, surrounded by a thin red and gold border.
