A scene of Jews building the cities of Pithom and Raamses is depicted in the bottom margin of the page. On the right, stands a walled city with a tower at the center, surrounded by a moat. A pole with a pulley extends from one of the buildings in the city. A man standing within the city wall holds one end of the rope of the pulley. The other end of the rope hangs down over the wall. A bucket hangs from a hook attached to the end and dangles over a barrel. A man who holds a rod in his hand and carries a basket of bricks on his back, walks towards the city. Behind him, at the center of the scene, two men stand working. One holds a tub full of mortar which rests on a table and the other mixes the mortar with a spade. On the left, is another walled city on a hill. A man with a basket on his back climbs up a ladder which rests at the foot of this hill, leaning against the wall.
