The people are all looking at each other. The background is a landscape with trees and hills. The people are all dressed in old-fashioned clothes. The woman in red has a fancy headband on. The baby she's holding is reaching out to the other baby. The man with the beard is looking at the babies. The painting is very detailed and colorful. It looks like it was painted a long time ago.
