- Abstract:
- Design in an oval. 'Cits' fish in a small piece of water bordered by a fence with a high railing on the left, beyond which is a road flanked by a high wall. Across the water (right) is a house with a high-pitched roof. Five men, three of whom are smoking, fish in the foreground in close proximity, two others on the farther side; an eighth (left) approaches carrying his rod. This appears to be the extreme north corner of the reservoir, where it is narrowest. Cf. British Museum online catalogue
