Description

A woman in a light sleeveless patterned dress and wide-brimmed hat sits on the ground with her legs crossed, leaning against the thick trunk of a large tree. Its roots spread over the bare, stony ground. A basket hangs from a branch on the left, and low bushes and scattered rocks lie in the background.
