The left two thirds depict green, brown, and white colored ground. In the background on the right, there is a body of water, two sailboats visible in the distance. In the center foreground, a female figure with a red headscarf, blue dress, and white apron holds a basket on her left side. To her right in the midground are two people, with a bucket beside them, one bending over. To her left in the midground are two female figures in similar dress, standing next to one another.
