The woman looks to her right, with her left arm bent at the elbow. A man with long hair and a beard lies on the ground to her right. The man holds a staff in one hand. The man lies on his back with one leg raised. Two nude male figures are on the ground to her left. In the background on the right is a map with a key. The map depicts a city; many of the streets are labeled. Behind the seated figures are several buildings; one with an archway. The image has an ornate border with curled leaves.
