DescriptionThe image is a landscape in which a gray and darkening sky hangs over a foreground of two small grass covered hillocks that come together to form a small valley just right of center where a small stream cascades; spindly wind-blown trees top the crests of the hills. In the distance a city can be seen on the horizon.
