The painting depicts a lively gathering of people in a wooded area, with a large tree on the right side and a blue sky with clouds in the background. The figures are dressed in various attire, with some wearing white or orange robes, while others are shirtless or wearing blue garments. In the foreground, a man is shown reclining on the ground, while another figure stands behind him, holding a jug. The overall atmosphere of the scene appears to be one of celebration or revelry.
