From the Getty Museum record
Portrait of a woman wearing a dress typical of the canton of Bern, Switzerland. She stands beside a pile of logs, holding on to the handle of a wooden bucket placed atop the wood pile. She rests one hand on her hip and one corner of her apron is tucked up, possibly into a pocket. The painted backdrop behind her depicts a dirt road through a mountain town.
