Un alto ciprés oscuro se alza junto a un camino sinuoso y pálido bajo un cielo nocturno azul en remolino, con estrellas brillantes y una luna creciente. Dos figuras caminan por el sendero en la parte inferior derecha, mientras campos de trigo dorado ocupan el lado izquierdo con pinceladas gruesas y rítmicas.
