The image shows a formal garden with a classical building in the background. The viewpoint is elevated, providing a clear view of the garden layout and the structure. The horizon is not clearly defined but suggested by distant vegetation and hills. The drawing uses cross-hatching for texture and shading. The monochromatic color scheme emphasizes the detailed line work. The scene includes a trimmed hedge, a path bordered by small bushes, a central water feature, various trees, and taller trees in the distance.
