Description

A man in a white shirt and light trousers stands on a dirt track at right, smoking a pipe and holding something in one hand. A small boy in shorts and a light shirt stands at left with both arms raised, looking up toward a small flying object near a washing line strung with pegs across the scene. Behind them, a steep hillside is covered with trees and scrub under a pale sky.
