Dappled sunlit scene of a young woman and boy gathering plums in an orchard on the banks of a stream. In the foreground the young woman dressed in white kneels with a basket in her left hand, her right arm outstretched gathering fallen fruit from the ground, there are three baskets full of fruit to her side in the bottom left corner. Behind her to the right, a young boy in short-sleeves and braces also scours the ground for plums. The stream and banks of trees with bent trunks and sunlit leafy branches are behind them to the left.
