This painting features two men standing in arched doorways, facing each other. The man on the left wears a blue robe with yellow accents and a white head covering, while the man on the right sports a blue robe with yellow floral patterns and a white turban. Above them, a blue sky with trees and two white domes is visible. The scene is set against a white stone wall adorned with intricate floral designs and a green grassy area at the bottom, complete with flowers and a small black square.
