Español: Mont Sainte-Odile con el Muro Pagano

Una pintura de paisaje muestra un edificio fortificado o monasterio sobre una colina, por encima de un denso bosque de pinos altos y retorcidos. En primer plano, grandes piedras planas forman un muro escalonado rústico entre brezos y flores silvestres, que guía la mirada hacia el acantilado iluminado por el sol.
