The painting shows a woman in a long orange dress and a headscarf standing in a field with several sheep and goats. The scene is set against a backdrop of trees and rolling hills. The colors are muted, with shades of green, blue, and brown dominating the palette. In the foreground, the woman is prominently featured, while the animals and landscape are depicted in a more subtle manner. The overall effect is one of serenity and calmness.
