A group of women and children dressed in loose clothes and headscarves or embroidered hats are sitting on a path through a cottonfield. The women are removing cotton from husks and placing it in a basket and on a cloth on the ground. In the distance, children are walking along the path, a worker is standing in a cottonfield, and snow-capped mountains are visible on the horizon.
