The image shows three children sitting barefoot on the wooden steps of a small building or cabin by the waterfront. The children are captured from head to feet, with the two on the ends seated sideways and the one in the center seated facing forward. The girl on the left has long, light hair and is dressed in a simple dress or smock. The girl in the middle has long dark hair and wears a checkered skirt and dark top while resting her chin on her hand. The boy on the right has short hair and is focused on an object he holds in his hands, wearing a long shirt and shorts. The background features a calm body of water lined with an undeveloped shoreline, grasses, and a few wooden structures. Beyond the beach are dense trees and glimpses of buildings.
