A quiet pond fills the lower middle of the scene and holds a reflection of the cloudy sky. Beyond it, a meadow scattered with tiny white flowers rolls back toward rounded trees and long, soft blue hills.

The foreground is built from dark, loosely brushed grasses and a few pale blossoms, which frame the water. Olive, gold and misty grey tones give the landscape a calm, slightly nostalgic atmosphere. Visible brushwork and a faint canvas texture add to the traditional oil-painting feel.
