The trees' leaves are bright yellow. The trees cast shadows towards the viewer coloured grey-green, ochre and orange-red. The grass about the trees and in the valley is a yellow-green with touches of ochre, orange-red and grey-green. In the middleground, to the left of centre, zigzags a river (whose banks are defined by lines of brown and white). A forest of dark brown and dark green surrounds the river on the left and from behind. The background is an undefined area of green, indicating the base of the mountains lining the valley.

Multi-coloured grasses (ochre, yellow-green, red-brown, dark brown), a group of dark evergreens (on the right), as well as, a solitary evergreen (on the left) are found on the hilltop. In the background is a wide valley with a large glacier. The glacier (coloured with white, grey, light blue and light brown) fills most of the lefthand side. The righthand side of the background contains a mass of dark grey and brown cliffs (with touches of grey-blue and ochre). Along the upper edge of the picture (above the glacier) are loose brushstrokes of blue, white, brown and blue-grey. These marks suggest distant cliffs among ice and clouds.
