Description: | Rural landscape depicting a row of elevated windmills running through the centre of the composition and into the distance. In the foreground, peasants stand talking, some on horseback and some with horse drawn carts; animals graze amongst the working people. To the left, a wooden farmhouse stands beneath the shadow of a windmill atop a grass covered mound. To the right, a woman sits on the bank of a river, which flows into the distance, while a man sits upon a horse drinking from the water; a small dog stands beside the two. In the background, more figures on horseback travel across the landscape towards a town just visible through the haze. Hills line the horizon beneath a cloudy sky.
