- A pastoral scene with a pair of trees in the foreground with a young woman seated on the ground. She is playing a musical instrument. To her R is a woman milking a cow. To her R are several sheep, a shepherd and a dog. Four cows stand and two swans float in a wide pond. Three gentlemen, probably herders, stand on the shore. One is on the near show while two are on the far side. In the R background are three houses, each with mica windows. Various trees and hills decorate the landscape scene. (See also #3863)
