A vertically oriented print in dense black-inked fine lines depicts two people with light skin tones in a rural landscape. In the center, a man wearing a hat and cloak leans against a wooden fence. In the foreground right, a woman sits with her back turned. Behind the fence, sheep rest near a building with a cat on its roof. Overlapping lines create deep shadows. The inscription "L'ÉTÉ" is centered below.
