Two grey oxen are harnessed to a green wooden wagon covered with a brown, fabric canopy. The color palette consists of earthy tones including grey, brown, and green. The oxen are positioned on the left side of the image, standing side by side. The wagon is to the right of the oxen, with its round green wheels and brown canvas visible, implying a profile view of an animal-drawn cart.
