The image shows a landscape with a city in the distance. The horizon line is positioned just below the center of the image and features buildings with a tall spire. There are figures and animals in the foreground, one of which appears to be a woman with a donkey. The sky has swirling clouds with linear hatch marks. The color palette is mainly shades of grey and black on an off-white backdrop, giving an aged look to the scene.
