Annotation:

In the foreground is a deer argish or caravan of load-carrying sleds, with domestic belongings packed on them, wading in water to the other riverside. The argish is controlled by a herdsman who has already reached the other side with his team. In the background, the part of the herd can be seen that has already moved to the other side.
