Painting depicting a group of riders, perhaps a family, with a man, two women and a child. The man in a black hat (karabalak) with a pointed beard in a white shirt and trousers, leads the group on the left of the painting, riding a grey donkey with a saddle. He is followed by a woman dressed in a white, striped turban, yellow shirt and skirt and a dark green waistcoat, riding a white donkey with a saddle cloth with a red pattern. Behind is a young woman dressed in a red headscarf and a blue dress, playing a flute. She is riding a camel with a striped saddle cloth over a wooden frame. A small child dressed in a red cap, white shirt and brown trousers clasps her waist from behind. The riders are travelling across steppe with green, purple and yellow vegetation.
