About the work

In the museum's own words — in Spanish

Anverso: Vista de una granja Escena rural en la que vemos, a la izquierda, un grupo de gansos o cisnes avanzando a la izquierda. Tras ellos, una vaca o un toro visto desde los cuartos traseros, ligeramente de perfil, con la cabeza agachada, y tras él asoma la cabeza de otro animal. Hacia el centro del papel, una figura femenina de pie, de espaldas, y frente a ella, dos mujeres sentadas. Todas ellas están a la sombra de un árbol de gran tronco que se encuentra a la derecha de la composición, delante de una puerta de una estructura rural. En al esquina superior derecha, dos aves domésticas, una de ellas un polluelo. Reverso: Barcas A la izquierda, unas barcas en el agua. A la derecha, poste que indica un puerto. Al fondo, el horizonte. La escena está muy ennegrecida por la aguada, resultando un tanto confusa.
