DescriptionA man standing in the center of the image gestures to others in his company sitting under the shade of a tree. All are richly garbed in draping pants, robes, and turbans. The aquatint in brown ink lends a washy, pen-and-ink quality to the print.This record has been reviewed by University Galleries staff but may be incomplete or contain errors.
