To the left, a seated woman has her arm around a small child. A young boy stands beside them. In front of the standing woman, another child sits next to a basket. On the right, three children sit on the ground, one inside a wooden tub. The background features bare trees, a hillside, and structures in the distance, suggesting a rural setting.
