The image shows two individuals in an outdoor rural setting. The person in the foreground is a young girl standing on the edge of a wooden platform, reaching upward with both arms extended. Her back-facing features include long hair tied with a ribbon, dressed in a knee-length dress, long sleeves, stockings, and shoes. The platform is placed above a wooden and metal wheel. The second person is a man mostly obscured by surrounding hay, leaning from the upper level, handing a basket of eggs to the girl below. The man wears a broad-brimmed hat and appears in simple work attire. The background is a barn with hay stacked around them, tools, farming implements, ropes, and wooden boards are seen amidst the hay.
