The image displays a landscape view with a low horizon line. The horizon is marked by a distant mountain range. To the left, an old stone building with rounded arches is perched on a small hill. Below the building is a river or stream. The scene features intricate linear brushstrokes portraying stonework, foliage, and water. The color palette is monochromatic in varying shades of sepia. Closest to us, two figures on horseback are guiding cattle across the shallow waters. In the background, trees and a mountain range are visible, giving a sense of scale and depth.
