The scene shows a woman sitting on the ground and washing clothes in a black basin in what appears to be an outdoor courtyard. The courtyard is enclosed by walls and several doors and windows. The walls are painted a faded pink color. Various containers, including buckets and a white pail, are scattered around. A large white sack is leaning against the wall in the foreground. Another person is briefly visible in the background. The overall setting looks like a simple, perhaps somewhat impoverished, residential courtyard.
