Study of a young woman holding a baby in a garden setting. The woman stands in front of a long bench, in profile to the right and supporting the baby with both hands. She wears a dark full length dress with purple detail, and a straw hat decorated with ribbon. The baby is dressed in a long white gown with a blue sash, and a white bonnet with blue and yellow detail. A small child in a smock and striped socks stands at the woman's feet; the child holds a bunch of grapes in its right hand away from a large turkey to the left. A house is visible in the background to the left, with trees and foliage in the middleground. In the far distance, a town is visible beneath a hazy overcast sky; birds soar above in the top right corner of the composition.
