Four children in a green setting, one with wheat, one with a sleeping baby, near a large tree
An oil painting depicts four young children in a green outdoor setting, likely a field or grove. A large, dark green tree dominates the left side of the composition, with a lighter, hazy sky and distant landscape on the right. On the far left, a child with short, light brown hair, wearing a dark dress with white puffed sleeves, sits on the ground. Their left hand rests on a red cloth, which partially covers a sleeping baby. The baby, dressed in white with a white cap, lies on a bed of straw next to a woven basket also containing straw. The child looks towards the right. Slightly behind and to the right of the first child, another child with similar light brown hair and a light-colored dress, topped with an orange-brown jacket, stands or kneels. This child's right arm is extended towards the right, with an open hand. On the far right, a fourth child stands upright, facing slightly towards the viewer. This child wears a yellow top and a long, flowing red skirt. With both hands raised, they balance a large, golden bundle of wheat stalks on their head. Their cheeks are notably rosy. The ground beneath the children is a mix of green grass and scattered straw. In the middle ground, between the central and rightmost children, a dark hat and a metal bucket are visible on the ground. The background on the right features a soft, light blue and white sky above a gently rolling green landscape with distant trees.
