This painting shows a scene set in a courtyard with high white walls that is open to the sky. Beyond the wall there is flowering vegetation, tall trees and a tower with a balustrade with keyhole shaped openings. There are two clay pots resting on top of the wall and an oriental style carpet hanging over one side.

There is bright sunlight streaming into the room which creates shadows on the walls and floor.

The forms of their bodies are set againist a plain white wall creating a strong outline, especially around the area of their hair and faces.
