This painting shows a woman in a landscape, wearing a long dress and a blue headscarf. She is standing on a path, with trees and bushes around her. In the foreground, there are some animals, possibly sheep or goats, grazing on the grass. The woman is holding a stick in her right hand, and she seems to be looking out at the viewer. The background of the painting is a hazy, dreamy landscape with rolling hills and a few trees. The overall mood of the painting is peaceful and serene. The painting is held at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
