The painting depicts a woman and a young girl in a wooded area. The woman sits on the ground, her legs bent to one side; she wears a white off-the-shoulder top and a long, multicolored striped skirt. Her dark hair is pulled back. She holds a basket in her lap with one hand and appears to be working on it. The young girl lies on the ground to the woman's left, wearing a light blue dress and having brown hair tied up with red bows. The girl's right arm is raised. In the background, there are trees, rocks, and a small white building with a path leading to it. The sky is blue with clouds, and there are hills in the distance.
