The image shows an elevated view of a graveyard scene with tombstones and cross-shaped silhouettes under a large moon in the night sky. Several gravestones are depicted, with inscriptions of places and dates of death. The style is monochromatic with emphasis on grey tones created by pencil strokes. Lighting and shading are used to highlight text and provide depth to the picture.
