Water color and pencil drawing of a newborn donkey with thin legs in comparison to his body, facing a farmer who is squatted down next to him. The man holds the chin of the donkey in one hand, and faces him so both their profiles are visable. The farmer seems comfortable as his legs are spread apart and his face contempt, though no further details are visable. The donkey is grey with black hair along hits back and tail. The farmer wears an orange hat and a olive green galabya.
