This fantasy landscape of vegetation and architectural ruins conveys the impression of a stage set, on which Boucher has strategically placed a number of lyrical figures from the bucolic repertoire: fishermen, shepherds and peasant women. As was common in this genre, the artificial impression of the scene is heightened by a strong light streaming in from the left. Boucher achieved immense success with compositions of this kind.
