The image shows a single-story building with columns and a tiled roof, extending from the left to the center. A cross sits on top of a small entrance in the center of the building. Two figures are near the columns, and a horse is to the right. The horizon blends into the sky, with hills or low mountains in the distance. The artwork uses cross-hatching to depict textures and shadows. The color palette is sepia-toned. In the distance, trees and smaller structures are visible, including a palm tree. The scene suggests a location with a mild climate. The composition is balanced, with significant sky space, featuring lightly sketched clouds above the mountains.
