The sketch depicts a row of old houses partially hidden by trees. Chimneys punctuate the sky. The lines are expressive, creating a lively impression of the architecture and foliage. The color palette is focused on earthy tones. Branches and shrubs create a visual plane leading to the buildings in the distance, which are intricately detailed.
