The image shows a woodland scene with a forest path. The horizon is depicted where the trees meet the sky. The detailed engravings show leafless, twisting branches. The ground is textured with linework to show earth and vegetation. The color palette is monochromatic, using shades of brown and sepia. In the distance, a path winds through the trees with two small figures present.
