This suggests a family group of father, mother and perhaps two children with a fifth older figure also in attendance. It is painted with bright wavy lines on a canary yellow background with scraping and scratching helping to enliven the paint surface. The older figure is suggested with marvellous brevity with a single large round (possibly shrunken) eye and a cadaverous head.
