Colored print of a rural home in summer, with other houses and a church in the background. A group of children swing on a gate at right. A boy and girl appear below a large tree near a well at center, with the boy lifting a bucket from the well. Men, women and children stroll and/or ride along a lane at left. Two verses from "The Old Oaken Bucket" appear beneath the image.
