This work is influnced by Wheatley but is of very poor quality. Walking to the left at full-length, wearing simple peasants clothing with an apron over her skirt and a large white kerchief wraped over her bosom, she carries a bundle of holly branches on her head held by her right hand; a lamb before her.
