Front view of the palaestra at the House of the Silver Bust in Vasio (Vaison-la-Romaine). The drawing is in landscape format and has no frame. Inscriptions appear on the reverse.
In the foreground, several figures walk under a colonnaded portico. A group of three figures can be seen conversing: a man, a woman and a child with a dog in his arms. In front of them, a young woman carries a basket of fruit. The portico opens onto a garden, and more precisely onto a palestra. On the right, figures are immersed in a pool, while on the left, others are sparring.
