Traveling Warriors Stopping at a Farm

Cleveland Museum of Art

The painting depicts a group of people sitting on the ground in a farm setting. Men wearing turbans and robes sit in a semi-circle on the ground, with one man on horseback to the left. A woman and child sit to the right, behind a table with dishes and pots. The background features a tree with green leaves and a camel standing to the left. Several animals are present, including chickens, a dog, a ram, and a horse. A girl stands to the right, holding a flower. The scene is framed by a gold border with a leaf pattern. The mural-style painting appears to be on old paper with signs of aging. The scene represents "Traveling Warriors Stopping at a Farm."
