In this painted landscape, two figures, a man and a woman, rest in the left foreground, peering across a body of water to the opposite bank, where animals graze and another couple rests on the ground. In the background, to the left, boats are moored before Italian ruins, while snow-capped mountains rise in the distance. The entire scene is bathed in a warm peach-pink light emanating from the left.
