Three people sit outside near a stone wall, wrapped in heavy cloth and headscarves. The woman on the left holds a small object in her hands. Behind them, a flat landscape stretches out with muted colors—dry fields and a distant hill. Their clothes are simple, with dark aprons and light shawls. The brushstrokes are thick, almost rough, giving the painting texture. This style makes the figures look real, even though the background is softer. Look up impasto next to see how this technique works.
