Two large, rough stone blocks are in the foreground, one slightly to the left and the other on the right. A hazy atmosphere surrounds the stones. The image is in black and white, with various shades of gray providing texture to the rocks and the surroundings. The stones occupy the lower half of the image, with the one on the left being more horizontal and the one on the right being more vertically oriented. The background fades into a dark, misty void.
