A family portrait of Elizabeth (1731–1801), Jane (b.1733) and Juliana (1734–1760), who were daughters of the 4th Earl of Gainsborough (1708–1751). The three girls are depicted in a garden setting with a statue of Pan to the left of the composition and a large urn to the right. The central figure is seated upon a rock, forward-facing, with a lamb resting on her lap; to the right, standing behind the rock, is a sheep. With one hand resting on her shoulder and the other touching the garland in her hair, is the second figure. To the right, kneeling on a rock, is the third figure who carries in her left hand a dish heaped with flowers and with her right, she holds on to the branch of a flowering tree growing behind her.
