Barely perceptible among the profusion of vegetation in this landscape are two female figures at center right, one standing under a tree and the other kneeling by the stream, possibly washing laundry. The setting is the Béal, a tributary of the river Cagnes near Renoir's home Les Collettes. The indistinctness of the figures highlights the way Renoir thought of them as part of the natural beauty of the scene.
