An adult male stands in an agricultural setting in Chinnalapatti, India, which combines a vineyard with livestock farming. He is positioned in the foreground, wearing an olive-green short-sleeved shirt, a teal scarf draped around his neck, and a brown and blue checkered lungi. A black pen is clipped to his shirt pocket. He holds a pale, newborn lamb in his cupped hands and looks directly at the camera with a neutral expression. To the right, a child wearing a yellow shirt and a brown lower garment is partially visible, seated atop the back of a light-colored goat or sheep. In the mid-ground, a herd of approximately 20-30 goats and sheep, predominantly light-colored with some darker patches, are scattered across the dry, reddish-brown ground, with several appearing to graze. Overhead, a robust trellis system supports green grapevines and leaves, extending across the scene and held by vertical wooden posts. A blue mesh fence is visible along the left edge of the foreground. Distant, rugged mountains are visible under a pale, overcast sky in the background.
