The artwork shows a low vantage point scene with an overcast landscape. Dense, textured trees are on the left side, and the horizon line is low with mountains in the background. The sky is meticulously painted with fine brushstrokes, focusing on light gradations. The color palette is monochromatic in black and white, creating a dramatic ambiance. There is a figure with a stick, two large animals, and a smaller animal on the left side. In the distance, a faintly sketched structure adds depth.
