The right panel features another group of people, including a woman and a child. In the background of the middle panel, there is a building with columns and a tree. The colors used in the painting are muted, with shades of brown, gray, and blue dominating the palette. The level of detail in the painting suggests a high level of skill and craftsmanship.
