The position of the swings in the composition forms a diamond. The boy on the left is facing 3/4 to the right, looking down toward the boy standing in the middle; the center one, above, is sitting facing forward with both arms stretched out holding the swing ropes with head turned to the left and up; the right one is sitting in profile to the left, with the head turned up, looking to the sky; in the center underneath is a boy in profile to the left, wearing a hat and looking at what's on the left. The four boys wear shorts and short-sleeved shirt and hold the swing ropes. Geometrized background and smooth range of blue sky determined by slight diagonal from the left to the right and from top to bottom which borders the geometrized part of the background.
