This painting shows a serene landscape with a large tree on the left and a church in the background. In the foreground, several cows are gathered around a well, while people are engaged in various activities nearby. The scene is set against a backdrop of a cloudy sky. The artist has used a range of colors to create a sense of depth and atmosphere in the painting. The use of light and shadow adds to the overall mood of the scene, drawing the viewer's eye to the central figures and the church in the distance. The painting is held at the Ashmolean Museum.
