Small rectangles overlapped forming a large hill, with perspective to the background, giving the idea of a city. The geometrization suggests homes and buildings composing a set of ogival shape. In the foreground on the half left bottom, a small house with lean-to roof and,by its side , the representation of a figure resembling a Carajá indigenous woman head-carrying a bucket of water. In the right half bottom, a woman figure with a rag around he head, with no defined facial features, standing in the other house window. On top of this house, as if she were upstairs, another woman leaning on the window with her right arm out pointing down. In the center of the set, light area like a beam of light reflecting an X shape.
