A wool pile with symmetric knots on a cotton foundation. The warm ecru field features a massive, saddled dromedary with a diminutive camel driver in front. A horse and rider move to the right, while a tree with uplifted bare branches and a colorful domed structure appear to the left. Rosettes, a donkey, a ewer, and abstract vegetal elements complete the scene. An implicit ecru border with simplified carnations frames the composition.
