A vertically oriented wood carving with incised outlines depicts a faceless figure weaving in the foreground. Wearing a maroon dress, pink shawl, and multicolored headwrap, the figure holds a green and brown loom. To the left, colorful laundry hangs against a gray wall. A tan building with a tiered roof fills the background on the right, while muted green mountains and a dark blue sky occupy the upper left corner.
