We look slightly down onto two girls or young women with light skin sitting close to us in a green, grassy field in this square landscape painting. At the bottom center of the composition, the closest girl has her back to us and wears a blue and white striped shirt over a long skirt painted with a blend of muted red and yellow strokes. A blue apron covers most of the front of her legs, and at least one black shoe emerges from the bottom hem, resting in the grass. Her brown hair is pulled up and covered by a red and white-checked cap. She looks toward her companion to our right, who turns her head over her left shoulder, her body facing our left in profile. The second girl has dark blond hair covered with a yellow kerchief speckled with daubs of dark red. She wears a peanut-brown shirt and skirt, and her legs are also mostly covered in a blue apron. The field is bordered by a line of slender tree trunks on the left and tall, dense hedges on the right. A light brown cow and a white cow stand in the field a short distance away. The grass is painted with tightly packed strokes of celery, pine, and kelly green with flecks of goldenrod yellow. Farther in the distance, a narrow band of silvery water enters from the left and runs across the canvas. Another field lies beyond it with a cluster of low buildings in the far distance on the right side. The artist signed and dated the lower right corner, “C. Pissarro 1882.”
