In the foreground, a large deciduous tree with a billowing canopy frames the view at right. At left, a built-up row of trees and other vegetation extends obliquely from foreground to background. A clearing or meadow, possibly with a creek or brook, is shown extending into the distance at center.

content: Verso: Figure sketches showing a group of four figures at upper right and one isolated figure at upper left. At right, two individuals stand over an infant while another figure, seemingly a woman, faces them. At left, the same figure appears to be reproduced. This scene is likely copied from a religious painting.
