There is a large stone archway with a round top made from textured stone, composed of concentric arches. The color palette consists of earthy tones like beige, brown, and hints of reddish hues, with subtle shadows creating depth. The archway is centered in the canvas, taking up most of the space, with visible stone texture all around. The arch's base is near the bottom center, and the surrounding stone appears rough and uneven in texture. There is a signature “K. van Velde” at the bottom right corner.
