Description

Thistle-like plants with spiky seed heads stand in the foreground of a grassy field that slopes toward a bay of still water. A wooded hill rises on the left, and a rocky headland with a rounded top juts out beyond the shore, with open sea on the right under a cloudy sky. Small, distant shapes lie on the shore below the headland.
