The image shows a pastoral scene with cows and goats near two seated figures, possibly shepherds. In the background, there is a meandering river leading to distant hills and a small town or village. Dense foliage is depicted on the right, with tall trees arching overhead. The artwork features detailed etching with a monochromatic color palette of black and sepia tones.
