The painting depicts a mountain, specifically Vesuvius, rendered in shades of gray. The mountain is centered in the frame, with a steep slope on the left and a more gradual slope on the right. The peak appears rugged. A body of water is in the foreground, with gentle ripples. The sky above is overcast with white and gray clouds. The artwork is a watercolor painting by Mary Newbold Sargent.
