This is a drawing of a building with large columns beyond a grassy field. The structure has a pediment supported by several pillars. Trees are positioned around the building, both close to us and extending into the distance, with foliage sketched using a mix of dense and sparse strokes. The color palette is monochrome, using shades of black, white, and gray with linework and shading.
