This is a drawing of two figures engaged in lumber work within a forested setting. The composition depicts two individuals chopping wood under tall, barren trees. The figure on the left is operating an axe while kneeling on the ground. The figure on the right is standing, wielding a long-handled tool, possibly a saw. The environment includes detailed trees with stark, bare branches, suggesting a winter or late autumn season. The thick, hatched lines and shadows contribute to the serious and laborious mood of the scene.
