The image shows a detailed view of a large tree root system. The roots dominate the left and central parts of the composition. Fine lines and shading give a realistic lithographic quality to the rendering. A horizon line separates the land from the sky, with smaller trees on the right. The color palette is monochromatic, using shades of black, white, and grey to emphasize textures.
