To the right of the path, a group of figures wearing simple clothing stand near a large stacked hay wagon pulled by a pair of animals; some figures appear to be working with tools while others stand nearby. Tall, dense trees form a wooded backdrop behind the wagon, with branches and foliage rendered in dark gray and black.
