Description
View of the foothills of mountains. The foreground slopes downwards towards a valley in the middleground. The valley slopes are covered in green, ochre and pale red-brown grass, as well as, patches of dark green and black trees.

Just beyond the fields are triangular hills which separate the valley from the plain in the distance. The right side of these hills are emphasized by the dark patches of forest. In the far distance are medium blue-grey mountains. The sky is light blue and is divided in half by a line of very pale white clouds with some pink blended in.
