Group of three children, consisting of a young boy, an older girl, and a very young girl, in a park setting. The boy stands to the right with the two girls, one of whom is in a wheel chair, with the older girl standing behind her. The boy appears to be pulling her wheel chair along the grass with a piece of string which is attached to the front of the chair. There are trees in the background. The clothes are rich in colour with the young boy, for example, wearing a blue velvet two-piece suit with a red waistcoat.
