View of four men gathered at the base of a small ablution fountain in the courtyard of the Yeni Camii, commonly known as the New Mosque. The small pavilion features decorative screens covering the archway openings, and elaborately carved trim over the upper façade. One of the men leans againts the building with one arm resting on a ledge and the other on his hip, as his three companions sit around him on the base of the pavilion.
