Description

Illustration on a wood plaque, created by incising lines into the surface and then adding red and black pigments, probably ochre and charcoal. This drawing shows to people lying in what appear to be bunk beds in a European style structure with a peaked roof. The person in the top bunk appears to be a woman. Next to the bunks is a kettle or pot hung in front of a fireplace, with a chimney extending up the wall and through the roof.
