Set in a humble domestic setting Robin Gray is seated on the right with his dog whilst on the left stand Jennie and her family. Just as the poem states, Jennie's father urges her to accept Gray's proposal while her sombre mother studies her daughters resigned contemplation the moment before her father gives away her hand.
