A thatched house with a chimney and small windows sits beside a larger structure with a sloped, tiled roof and open side, both fenced along the front. A tall pole rises above the buildings with a platform at its top where a bird stands. In front of the buildings a large leafy tree extends its branches, and near the shoreline two human figures are visible, one standing and one seated, with another small figure further out in the water. The foreground shows textured grass and soil leading to rippling water that reflects the scene, while the background features low distant buildings and a pointed spire beneath a sky filled with hatched, cloudlike formations.
