The image is an oval-shaped painting capturing a wide landscape scene. The horizon is in the upper third of the image, with rolling hills against a sky in warm hues. The sky has fluid brushstrokes transitioning from golds and oranges near the horizon to darker browns and greys. In the foreground, there are tepees and small figures suggesting a settlement. Animals are grazing in the middle ground, with trees in the background. The color palette includes earthy browns, greens, and warm tones from the sky.
