Detailed Description
Large, dark brown and orange mountains with heavily textured surfaces dominate the vertical composition. The largest mountain rises on the left, extending almost to the top edge, with smaller, similarly textured peaks to its right and in the lower center. These mountains are covered in numerous small, dark dots, giving them a rough appearance. Faint, light green lines resembling vines hang from the upper left mountain. In the lower left and center, a row of approximately six small, white houses with light brown, thatched roofs are situated along a wavy, gray path or body of water. In the background, lighter, muted gray and green mountains are visible behind the prominent dark peaks. The sky or background is a light, uniform beige-gray. On the lower right mountain, a small red square seal and some vertical black script are visible.
