Large gardening and farming tools including scythes and hoes are leaning against a tree with a piece of cloth draped over them. The color palette is primarily monochrome with shades of beige and black. The tools are positioned vertically on the right side of the tree, which is centered in the image, with the handles of the tools resting on the ground covered with grass and small plants.
