The painting shows people resting in a landscape with a big dome in the distance. It's interesting because the people are grouped in a triangle, which is a pose often used in old paintings. This pose was used by artists a long time ago to show important relationships between people. You can learn more about this style by looking up the technique of chiaroscuro.
