Features: Describes a tranquil summer morning. The sun is high in the clear blue sky, but the dew on the fields still sparkles. From the recently awakened valleys, a fresh fragrance wafts through the air. In the damp and noiseless forest, the morning birds are singing loudly. The gentle slopes are uniformly covered with flowering rye from top to bottom, and at the top of these hills, a small village can be seen. A young woman dressed in a sheer silk dress and wearing a straw round hat, holding an umbrella, is walking along the narrow country road toward the small village. A servant boy is following her from a distance.
