Black-and-white landscape drawing of two trees. A large tree dominates the right side with a thick trunk and many branches. A smaller tree with bushier foliage appears to the right of the central tree. A field or clearing surrounds the trees. The left part of the paper features faint smudges with no defined image. The drawing appears on a white background. The drawing is bordered by a thin line.
