The painting shows a desert landscape with several ruined tombs in the background. In the foreground, a man leads two camels across the sand. The tombs are depicted in various states of decay, with some having lost their domes or walls. The man and camels are shown in a realistic style, with attention to detail in their clothing and the texture of the sand. The painting is held at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
