South-west slope at Vouni
Description
A steep, rocky hillside falls away from a ledge at the top left, where one small figure stands looking out over the slope. Scrubby bushes and loose stones cover the lower slope, and a rounded boulder sits to the right. Beyond, a broad valley of hills and terraced ground stretches into hazy distance under a pale sky.

- A steep, rocky hillside runs diagonally across the frame, with dense scrub in the middle ground and loose stones below. A single man in a hat and light shirt stands on a rock ledge near the top left. Beyond, the land drops into a valley of scrubby hills, with further ranges fading into haze under an empty sky.
