Description

A narrow excavation cutting runs away from the viewer between steep walls of earth and rock. The left wall is rough and stony, with pale stones showing in its face, while the right wall falls into deep shadow. The floor is bare, sandy ground, and a strip of pale sky shows above the cutting's rim.
