Gathering Spring Herbs - Charming scene of upper-class ladies in the countryside gathering herbs in spring. An attendant shelters one of the beauties with an umbrella as they pause next to a cluster of young pine trees. A woman kneeling beside her looks up with a smile, her hands resting atop her basket.
