Behind the wall, there are dense trees and foliage partially obscuring the outline of a ruined stone building with crenellated walls and angled rooflines. A large, rounded tree stands to the right of the building, and additional trees and vegetation frame the left side. The sky above is pale and mostly empty, and the image has a worn, aged appearance with uneven toning.
