A scene of young men bathing at a mill pond. In the foreground a pair are sitting, one drying himself and the other eating an apple. Immediately behind them is a trio of men, two standing and one sitting, all drying themselves with towels. In the middle ground to the left another group can be seen with towels at the pond side and in the background the mill itself is visible. A bridge leads across the pond, beyond which in the far background is a tall chimney.
