Das Bild zeigt eine junge Frau in einem blauen, langen Sommerkleid und einem Strohhut, der in einem Lavendelfeld steht. Sie blickt nach rechts, und ihre Hände sind an ihrer Seite. Das Lavendelfeld erstreckt sich bis zum Horizont, wobei die Lavendelblüten in verschiedenen Stadien der Blüte stehen und in einem leuchtenden Violett leuchten. Im Hintergrund ist ein kleines, rotes Haus mit einem grünen Dach zu sehen, das auf einem Hügel steht. Der Himmel ist blau mit weißen, flauschigen Wolken, und im Hintergrund sind sanfte Hügel zu erkennen. Die Szene vermittelt ein Gefühl von Ruhe und Schönheit in der Natur.
