The image shows a side profile of two children seated on a merry-go-round. The child closest to the viewer is partially shown from the side, from the chest upward, wearing a wide-brimmed hat with a band, and a double-breasted coat with prominent buttons. The child's facial features include a small, seemingly pensive face, slightly tilted downwards, with visible short hair that peeks out from under the hat. The second child is depicted more fully seated on an animal figure, looking downward with their head slightly tilted and holding the reins. This child is wearing a long-sleeved dress with a large collar. Behind the children, several indistinct figures stand or walk on what appears to be a path with trees in the background. A man is depicted on the right side of the image with a camera on a tripod, indicating a scenic or park-like setting.
