DescriptionA craggy rock formation in the foreground of the work. It is done in yellow and orange, shaded in blue. The shading of the rock is created using thick horizontal pencil lines which are especially prevalent in the dark shadowed areas. The view of the formation begins on the left of the work and ends close to the right edge of the piece. In the background are other similar, hazy, blue rock formations with blue shadows.
