The image shows a house surrounded by large trees, viewed from the front. The entrance is slightly off-center to the right. The base of the house implies the horizon. It is characterized by fine lines detailing the foliage and shaded areas. Light and shadow are depicted through crosshatching and sparse lines. The color scheme is monochromatic, using only black ink on a light background. The grass shows shadows cast by the trees. Two large trees flank each side of the house, with branches extending across the top to frame the structure against the sky.
