A vertically oriented print in black ink depicts a courtyard in fine, sketchy lines. Several turkeys forage in the foreground. To the left, a woman in a long dress stands beside a large wooden tub with a heavy anchor leaning against it. In the background, a wooden staircase leads up to a balcony where figures with light skin tones gather in a doorway. The composition features sparse details and significant white space.
