Summary:
An autumn landscape by a pond with figures scattered about and a cloudy sky overhead. On the right, a young girl and a child walk along a path toward two other children, one seated on a fallen log, the other leaning against a bare tree. A small wagon is parked nearby. On the left, children play around the edges of the shallow pond. In the distance there are bare trees and a small house.
