Foothills area makes up foreground of this mountain scene. Large rounded rocks poke up through the olive green ground. Several stands of trees are scattered across this area. Beyond the trees are craggy mountain peaks. Between the mountains and the trees, there appears to be a patch of mist that runs across the print. The sky is soft blue at the top of the print and gets lighter as it moves towards the mountain tops.
