In the painting, two young peasants lovingly hold hands along a mountain path.
The boy, perhaps hot from working with the shovel he is clutching in his left hand, has folded his jacket on his elbow and unbuttoned his shirt. The woman, in traditional Abruzzi clothing, is carrying a saddlebag over her shoulder.
