Description
Mounted on board, unframed. | In the foreground, a barrel and a neat pile of stacked firewood stand in front of a barracks to the left; a small blue wheelbarrow with yellow lettering, "Jerome," on the side sits near the barrel; a basketball backboard and hoop are a short distance behind and to the right. At center, a man in black with hoe over right shoulder walk with a child in yellow coat and hat. In the background, behind the figures are barracks and brown outline of trees. The entire painting is predominantly grey with the suggestion of a late fall or winter setting.
