The image shows a pueblo-style structure in a mountainous landscape. The horizon is high in the composition, with hills or mountains in the background. The structure is made of stacked blocks with small windows and doors. There are people engaging in different activities near the building, with a cart and piles of crops visible. Figures can be seen in the distance on the upper levels of the structure. The artwork uses a monochromatic color palette of sepia and black. Various objects, such as ladders and structures made of logs and tree trunks, are included in the scene.
