The background is a blue sky with some clouds. The painting is done in a loose, expressive style, with visible brushstrokes and vivid colors. The figures are simplified and abstracted, with an emphasis on their forms and shapes. The painting is held at the Munch Museum, which is dedicated to the work of Edvard Munch.
