Description

A wide view across a valley from a hill, with mountains under cloud behind. Dark, low mounds of slag fill the foreground, and a rounded mound rises at the right centre. Small buildings sit on the flat ground in the middle distance, while fields, orchards and trees spread across the valley floor to the right.
