On an oval base with a convex relief ground is a sculptural composition depicting buffaloes harnessed to an arba — a high two-wheeled cart. The buffaloes are shown during a short rest: one is lying down with its short legs tucked under, while the other stands with its head lowered. Inside the arba stands a goat, looking around restlessly.
