An ancient stone building with a recessed doorway, framed by three columns on the front, with a flat roof; a group of goats lying in the foreground; two people sitting on the right edge; a landscape of hills in the distance. The image is sepia-toned with black and white details. The building appears to be constructed from stone or concrete. The doorway and columns are centered on the image. The goats are mostly lying down. The people sitting on the right edge are wearing robes. The hills in the distance are low and flat. The image has a border around it with text below reading "ENTRANCE TO THE CAVES OF BENI-HASSAN".
