The image shows several individuals around a wooden cart pulled by a donkey. A man sits at the front of the cart holding the reins, another man sits inside the cart, and a woman stands holding a shovel, leaning against the cart's wheel. Beside the donkey, a woman holds a young child. In the background, three people stand near a white wooden building in a rural setting with sandy ground, large trees, and hanging mosses.
