The image depicts a black and white drawing of a rural landscape. A field with several bundles of harvested grain stacked into triangular shapes dominates the scene. The bundles are wrapped in long grasses or stalks and secured with ties. A person lies on their back in the foreground, in front of two of the bundles. They wear a hat and a long-sleeved shirt. In the background, a low wall made of cut grasses or stalks runs horizontally across the image. Several trees are visible behind the wall. The sky above is cloudy and appears to be windy, with many lines suggesting movement. The overall atmosphere of the image is one of a peaceful, rural scene. The artist's signature "A. Lepère" is visible in the bottom-left corner.
