Portrait of a woman wearing a dress and hat typical of the canton of Vaud, Switzerland. She sits on a rocky mound covered with grass and small plants, and rests one hand on the handle of a basket. A second basket sits on the ground at her feet, and the painted backdrop behind her features a church next to a lake and the surrounding mountains.
