The artwork depicts a lush forest scene with a prominent yellow birch tree in the center. The viewpoint is at ground level, providing a look at the forest. The tree's textured bark and sprawling branches are surrounded by a dense array of green foliage and other slender tree trunks. The horizon is not visible, as the scene is densely wooded, with layers of trees extending into the distance. The color palette is rich with various shades of green, highlighted by touches of moss and ferns on the ground.
