Summary

A pastoral scene of a young peasant girl sitting with a goat in a country lane, with a wheelbarrow full of flowers by her side, some of which are spilling onto the ground. The goat is standing in front of her and nibbling at the flowers. To the right, in the background, a young man stands on banks of a river running alongside the lane, fishing and leaning against a tree.
