The double portrait shows two smiling Bavarian peasant girls posing in the courtyard. It is obvious that they are strongly attracted to each other. The slightly taller girl stands slightly offset behind the shorter woman. Both are wearing long grey work skirts, which emphasize their traditional clothing and express their attachment to the rural way of life. Despite their different sizes, both women radiate a natural beauty and self-confidence as they smile together for the photo. The scene conveys a sense of harmony, cohesion and pride in their roots.
