He is dressed in dark clothing and a black hat, with his legs crossed and his hands clasped together. The boy's face is blurred, adding a sense of mystery to the scene. In the background, a subtle gray tone provides a soft contrast to the bright colors of the meadow. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of serenity and tranquility, inviting the viewer to step into the peaceful world of the boy in the meadow.
