View of a glacier beyond a rise of covered ground. In the foreground is an uneven hilltop covered in vegetation. 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.
