The image shows a large tree with dense foliage on the left and central area. In the background, there is a farm building with a gabled roof along the horizon. The style is characterized by bold black and white tones typical of woodcuts, with swirling lines in the sky and linear strokes creating shadows and textures on the barn and ground. The color palette is entirely monochrome, emphasizing light and shadow. Two silhouettes of figures are in the distance on the right. The composition blends natural and man-made elements with strong contrasts and intricate patterns.
