The image depicts a black and white scene titled "Summer" by Charles-Émile Jacque. A woman sits on a stone path wearing a long dress with her feet bare, her back to the viewer; she holds a lamb. Behind her, a man wearing a hat and cape leans on a wooden fence, also with his back to the viewer; he holds a shepherd's staff. The path has grass and bushes growing alongside it. There are trees on both sides of the path. On the left side of the image, several sheep stand on a hillside. In the background, there appears to be a house or barn behind the fence. The sky is visible through the trees. The overall scene appears to depict a rural setting.
