Below this scene is a smaller one showing people in traditional clothing attending an outdoor church service, with figures playing musical instruments. Cattle mingle in the crowd. A large cactus sits to one side, and there is a small building in a back corner. The side walls are white and decorated with multicoloured dots. The outer structure is a box made of wood with a pediment above two doors that open on leather hinges, contained by thread that passes through metal rings to keep them from opening too far.
