DescriptionThe image is a landscape executed in an Impressionistic style in which the foreground is flat ground with the lower left corner having darker tones. The middle ground has a grouping of structures and haystacks that creates a line horizontally across the visual plane; from left to right there is a haystack with rounded top, a haystack with a pointed top, a small red structure, a midsize structure with white walls, trees that extend to the right screening the last and seemingly largest structure. The background is filled with trees in full foliage with atmospheric sky above.
