Summary

View of a house with a woman and small child standing before it. The roof of the house is overgrown with moss/ivy. On the right is a gap in a wooden fence that leads to another house, towards which a male figure is walking. The drawing is oval in shape, and sketchy in style, which gives a picturesque aspect to what could be called an image of rural disrepair.
