The point of view in this image is direct and at eye level. The horizon is implied but not distinctly visible, with a subtle suggestion of a gentle slope beyond the fences and trees. The two main tree trunks stand upright and are prominently featured in the scene. The style of the brushstrokes is loose and sketch-like, with an emphasis on line and minimal shading. The color palette is comprised of soft sepia tones, ranging from light beige to darker browns. Various sketched lines represent foliage and structures that stretch into the distance.
