One carries a spear in her left hand while a swag of her robe billows up behind her. The other looks on meanwhile a tall dog stands beside them. Beyond the figures on a hill in the background, a tree-lined road runs off into the distance. Lush natural beauty in an asymmetrical yet balanced composition create an organic scene with movement and vitality. Leafy branches grow above a verdant landscape in shades of sage, olive, verdigris, and cerulean.
