Description

A rough, rocky shore fills most of the frame, with large boulders and smaller stones scattered over a dusty, uneven ground surface. A taut string or cord runs diagonally across the rocks, and calm grey water fills the upper left background. No people are shown, and the boulders are natural rock rather than worked stone.
