This painting tells the story of a father and his son who live near the forest. Their life is very simple every day, just farming and occasionally looking for fruit, honey which can be sold to the city and looking for dry tree branches which they use as fuel for cooking and some of which they sell to the city. They really love their life living in a village near the forest far from the city, they are very familiar with the path in the middle of the forest which they pass every day to look for fruit and twigs. And they really care about the animals that live in the forest, they don't like hunting animals, in fact they really care for and maintain life in the forest by not destroying the forest. Because by protecting the forest, life in the village is well maintained. Water sources are maintained and village people use water for farming and other basic needs such as cooking, bathing and so on. By protecting the forest, the beauty and diversity of living creatures living in the forest can be maintained and provide benefits for everyone.
