The image features three women standing and facing left. The first woman blows a horn while holding an object. The second holds a lidded urn against her chest, and the third holds a similar urn with her left arm while draping a cloth over her shoulder with her right hand. The women have delicately drawn facial features and detailed hair and wear flowing robes. Each woman holds a distinct object, likely an urn. The background is minimal, with the focus on the figures.
