The scene depicted is a sculpting camp in Myanmar. Three young ones are polishing a staute of a Giant Sitting Buddha while a mature and voluminous wouman watches them. The foreground shows the tropical vegetation of the country. The figures are inside a rustical rope shelter that protect them from the sunshine that envolves the rest of the picture, giving a high light contrast. Color palette is brightful and primarly based, tempered with purples greys and warm yellows and ochres.
