The image shows a mission-style church seen from a slightly elevated perspective. The horizon is low, with the church's rooftops and crosses defining it. The church's facade is prominent, with an arched entrance and a balcony supported by columns. There are trees on either side of the entrance. The sky occupies most of the frame above. The pencil strokes provide texture to the trees and architecture with light and shadow. The color palette is monochromatic, with blacks, whites, and grays. In the distance, there are crosses and shadows suggesting a cemetery.
