Description

Two men, two small children in caps and a woman in a long dark coat and pale hat sit or stand on wooden chairs under a large bare tree. A child in pale clothing sits near the woman's feet. Behind them a stone wall with a dark arched opening rises beside a shallow channel of water and rocky ground.
