Description

A wide view across a grassy plain towards a bay of still, pale water. A steep hillside covered with scrub rises on the left, and a rounded rocky knoll stands beyond the shore to the right of centre. Shrubs and a few trees grow on the foreground, where spiky plants and dried thistle stems frame the view under a hazy sky.
