The colors of this image are subdued but richly hued. The image can be divided into the thirds: the top third is a cloudy sky, the middle is a tree line and a solitary tree standing away from the other trees, and the bottom third is a path cutting through grasses. The path starts at the bottom left of the image and disappears over a slight rise and turn to the right. The pathway looks ready for the viewer to step onto and start exploring. The autumn grasses are yellow and tan, the trees that still have leaves are mostly green, but some have started to turn rust or yellow. A lone leafless tree stands to the left of the path, a bit away from the viewer. Its branches create a lacy silhouette against blue and gray clouds that are pierced in sections by golden sunlight.
