A rural landscape with two shepherds in the centre foreground, resting against rocky outcrop beneath the shade of a tree on the left. One man leans on red drapery, the second rests on blue fabric. There are bushes to the right, beyond which is a steep mountainous hillside. In the middleground is a meandering river which flows away out of view, towards more hills in the distance.
