Man in front of Fence

Image

A bearded man is standing in the foreground in front of a fence, and a person is sitting on the fence on the right. Two people are standing on the hill behind the fence. A man on the far left is sitting in a horse-drawn cart on the road in front of the fence. On the hill beyond is a farmstead, including an orchard, farmhouse, and a barn with a cupola and haystacks. There are beehives among the shrubs and trees near the farmhouse. Two people are posing in the barn windows.
