The scene is a dirt-floored enclosure, covered by a corrugated metal roof. In the center of the frame is a young cow, tied with a rope to a section of the enclosure. Behind it, partially obscured, is another calf. To the left are rusted metal gates and fencing. To the right, a concrete wall with debris stacked against it. In the foreground, a white, cloth-like object lies on the ground. The lighting is subdued, filtered through the roof of the structure. In the background, trees and a fence are visible through an open gate. The cow is standing still, facing forward. The overall scene has a rural, agricultural feel.
