A vertically oriented oil painting with fine brushstrokes depicts a forest with tall trees reaching up the canvas. Lower left, a girl with medium-light skin tone in white top and red skirt stands near another person in a wide-brimmed hat. Sun-dappled grass and light-colored bark contrast with dense, dark green foliage above. In the foreground, a dark stream flows over gray rocks toward the viewer.
