The painting depicts a rugged, rocky gorge with steep cliffs on both sides. A small stream runs through the center, with water flowing over rocks and around fallen tree trunks. A broken wooden bridge spans the stream in the foreground, with planks scattered across the rocks. Large boulders line the stream, and tree roots hang down from the cliffs. The cliffs are covered in trees and moss. A beam of light shines down from the top center of the image, illuminating the scene. The overall color palette is dark and muted, with shades of brown, green, and gray dominating the image.
