The image shows a rural scene with fields, workers harvesting crops, and a sky with clouds. The fields are golden with workers in blue and white clothing cutting and bundling wheat. The sky is pale blue with fluffy clouds. The painting has a smooth and somewhat naïve brushstroke style, using warm golden yellows, earthy browns, and cool tones for the workers' clothing and pastels for the sky.
