In this oil on canvas an image of rural character is developed, starring shepherds with their flocks. The scene takes place in an exterior of golden light, in which several architectural constructions can be seen. The author has conceived this work is following the costumbrista models, although he introduces a new and discordant element such as the appearance of the ruin, which becomes the protagonist of the image, although its presence may go unnoticed.
