What is in this image? Describe it as if you were explaining it to someone from the 15th century.

This image is a creative drawing featuring a scene that blends reality with imagination in a very simplistic and geometric style. Central to the scene is an animal that resembles a dog, depicted with angular, straight-edged limbs and a boxy body. Upon this dog''s back rests a small hat-shaped structure, resembling a house or a tiny abode, symbolically carrying the shelter wherever it goes. Behind the dog and its carried house, the background is filled with numerous rectangles and squares, some filled completely while others have smaller squares within them. This repetitive pattern could be interpreted as numerous windows or patterns on a larger surface. The overall environment, composed of rectangles and lines outlining partitioned spaces, seems to suggest an abstract portrayal of a village or a city from a highly stylized perspective.To a viewer from the 15th century, I would describe this as an allegorical tapestry showing a fantastical creature, bearing the weight of its home, walking through a maze of heraldic shields or emblems, each possibly symbolizing different houses or stations. The entire composition might invoke discussions on the nature of responsibility, community, or the journey through varied terrains of life.
