The image depicts a flat landscape with a windmill as the central focal point, slightly to the left. The scene shows sparse buildings, potentially other mills or farmhouses, a line of trees, and a low horizon line. The windmill's sails are visible, and the brushstrokes and line work give the image a sketch-like quality. The color palette is monochromatic, in shades of sepia and black. Small patches of vegetation and a suggested path or road add depth to the scene.
