The painting depicts a man reclining on a rooftop. He wears white pants and an open red robe over a white shirt. The man's head rests on a blue and gold pillow. His left arm is on his stomach, and his right arm hangs down from the couch. A table with a teapot and cup is beside him. A sheathed sword and a wrapped object are behind him. A bird perches on steps in the background to the right. A city skyline with buildings and a mosque is visible in the distance. Two nude figures with transparent, flowing fabric float in the air above the man. The figure on the right holds a string. A lit incense burner emits smoke beside the man. The night sky is dark blue with stars.
