The children have played their game successfully and are leaving with
their loot, i.e. the wagon. Daubigny is seen on board the boat to the left.
The woman, possibly Madame Daubigny, holds a basket in her right
hand and with her left hand holds the hand of a child, probably her
youngest son Bernard, born in
1854
