The painting depicts a lively outdoor scene in a garden with trees and hanging lanterns. A man and woman are dancing in the center. The man wears a brown and gold costume, with his right leg extended in mid-step. The woman wears a long, flowing dress and a hat, with her arms raised. Several people sit on benches and chairs along the edges, watching the dancers. The spectators include both men and women, dressed in 18th-century attire. Some appear to be eating or drinking. The atmosphere is festive. The color palette is muted, with shades of brown, beige, and gray dominating the scene. A few hanging birdcages are visible among the tree branches.
