Three simple folk-art ghosts, soft white sheet-like forms with small black oval eyes, stand quietly among tall golden autumn grass. A dense foreground meadow of white wildflowers with small orange centers fills the lower part of the picture.

On the horizon, rolling hills and a faint castle silhouette fade into fog under soft, diffused daylight. The oil painting shows woven canvas grain, loose confident strokes in the sky and hills, and thicker palette-knife-like dabs for the flowers and grass tips.
