A horizontally oriented color lithograph depicts a classical temple with vertical columns and a triangular roof. Centered toward the right, the structure is rendered in dark red and brown tones. Below, a large oval foreground is filled with dense, curved lines. To the left, a dark, pointed tree sits beside a small building. Scratched gold and brown lines create a heavily textured surface throughout the composition.
