A group of figures bends and works among rows of vivid red and yellow vines, their blue and green garments standing out against the fiery foliage. The vineyard stretches diagonally from the lower left to the upper right, filling the foreground and middle ground with thick, textured brushstrokes of red, orange, and gold. Further back, a horse-drawn carriage and a wheelbarrow appear near the horizon, with a small house and trees silhouetted against the glowing sky.

The sky is filled with swirling strokes of yellow and green, radiating from the sun and echoing the energy of the landscape below. The ground beneath the workers is mottled with patches of blue, purple, and brown, suggesting muddy soil and the play of shadow and light. Thick, impasto brushwork gives the surface a sense of movement and vitality, with each stroke visible and distinct, especially in the foliage and sky.

A line of trees marks the edge of the vineyard to the left, their trunks slanting and their foliage rendered in cool greens and blues. The riverbank curves from the lower right corner upward, bordered by thick, swirling lines of ochre and orange. Near the top left, dark tree trunks tilt at angles beneath a canopy of blue-green foliage, forming a dense border along the field.

In the far distance, faint blue shapes suggest additional trees or buildings against the horizon, softened by the hazy light. The sun casts a bright, circular glow that radiates outward, illuminating the upper right sky and creating golden highlights on the water below. At the bottom left, the paint is applied in short, choppy strokes of purple, blue, and black, suggesting wet earth or shadowed ground amid the vines. The Pushkin Museum notes the presence of the vineyard, human figures, farmers, a river, a carriage, a wheelbarrow, the sun, and a house within the landscape.
