Watercolor painting of four almost identical men riding white camels, saddled with brown fabric, looking directly towards the viewer. Their facial features are not shown. They seem to be marching to the left of the drawing, and the background is a yellow desert with a blue sky. The painting is very impressionistic and uses negative space.
