This painting shows a group of sheep gathered under the shade of tall trees in a patch of brown dirt covered with yellow straw. The sheep have pale yellow woolly bodies and white faces with pink noses and ears. Most of them are standing and facing us, although some look down at the ground, and one on the left is sitting down. Behind the sheep, on the left, is a tan structure with a flat red roof. The sheep appear to be contained by a dark brown fence that we can see behind the trees on the left. The sky, partially visible behind the building and trees, is light blue.
