Forest landscape with three children picking flowers
The painting shows a brook in front on the left, where three girls, spread out on the green meadow on the right of the brook, are playing. Next to them are two fallen trees, the middle ground on the right behind them is formed by a small autumnal forest, and on the left the flat horizon is visible in the background. Above them is a blue, loosely clouded sky that takes up more than half of the picture.
The work is signed "J. Wenglein" on the lower right, but not dated.
