Family life scene in Matmata, with a woman holding a baby, several children playing or sitting, and another woman near a large container. The reverse details the region's history: Gabès as the southern gateway, Matmata as a Carthaginian oasis and Berber town with troglodytic dwellings, and Médenine as a crossroads of roads to Jérba, Libya, and the Sahara, known for its 'ghorfas' (elevated granaries).
