Description

A field of low leafy plants grows in rows across the foreground, with stony dark soil between them. Large dense trees fill the left edge, and a bushy hedge runs along the middle of the picture. Beyond, a flat shore runs out to the sea on the right, where a few small figures are visible far away near the water.

A field of low, broad-leaved plants fills the foreground, with loose stones scattered across the bare soil. Dense dark trees stand at the left edge, and a flat beach with a few small, distant figures runs along the shore. The calm sea and a pale sky fill the right side of the view.
