The image depicts a countryside scene in a delicate sketching style with watercolor washes. The viewpoint is elevated showing a sloping terrain with hills in the distance and a church with a blue roof on the right. A village with buildings and trees extends towards the horizon. The ground is depicted in earthy tones, and the sky is pale with faint cloud-like sweeps.
