Description

A bare, pale hillside rises across the middle of the view, with low scrub bushes scattered over its slopes and a flat-topped crest against the sky. A pine tree leans in from the left edge, and rocky, stony ground fills the foreground. Further right, the land drops into a valley with more ridges receding into a hazy distance.
