DescriptionView of a frame house with a stone foundation, brick chimneys, and a small porch at the left. At the left, a woman carrying two buckets stands near a well with a lattice wellhouse. A dog is nearby. A man stands beside a horse-drawn wagon in the center foreground. A second woman, wearing a hat and dress and holding a parasol, stands near a door opening into the basement of the house. In the right foreground are two hens, a rooster, and a group of baby chickens. A small farm building, probably a chicken coop, is in the background. Two trees are near an iron fence at the far left. Fields or pastures are on the hillsides behind the house. The higher slopes of the hills are densely wooded.
