The image depicts women with a baby near water, surrounded by trees. The setting is idyllic and pastoral, with several women gathered around the baby in a small body of water. One woman is tending to the baby, possibly retrieving it from the water, while another woman stands with a parasol. The figures wear flowing garments typical of classical or historical attire. Tall trees and lush foliage frame the scene. The edges of the drawing feature decorative scrollwork and floral motifs.
