DescriptionIn this representation, three figures listen intently to the visitor, whose back is to the viewer. All wear traditional clothing, wrapped in blankets and shawls with interesting variation. Compositionally, the visitor is emphasized, wearing the darkest clothing and placed in the center foreground, while the other figures form a triangular structure. A light, hazy backdrop of trees adds to the dreamy aspect of the subject.On View
