A pale, angular mountain rises across the upper half of the composition, its slopes rendered in overlapping strokes of blue, green, and white. Below the mountain, a cluster of ochre and yellow buildings sits nestled among dense, dark green foliage, their geometric forms standing out sharply against the more fluid brushwork of the landscape. Thick, blocky brushstrokes cover the entire surface, creating a mosaic of color and giving the scene a sense of structure and rhythm.

The sky above is filled with swirling patches of blue and hints of green, echoing the colors of the mountain and trees below. The light appears diffuse, with no clear source, bathing the mountain and buildings in a cool, even glow. The foreground is densely packed with foliage, painted in deep greens and blues, obscuring the lower parts of the buildings and merging with the landscape.

Diagonal lines, especially in the mountain’s outline and the roofs of the château, guide the gaze upward through the composition. Short, parallel brushstrokes create a sense of movement in the sky and hills, while the sharper edges of the buildings provide contrast. The overall palette is dominated by cool tones, with the warm ochre of the château providing a striking counterpoint.

In the upper right corner, the sky darkens with patches of deep blue and green, contrasting with the lighter tones elsewhere. The lower left corner features a dense cluster of dark, almost black, brushstrokes suggesting thick shadow among the foliage. The edges of the mountain are sharply outlined with blue, creating a jagged contour against the sky.

No human figures or animals are visible anywhere in the composition. The paint is applied in visible, rectangular dabs that overlap and create a textured, almost mosaic-like surface throughout the scene. Hints of yellow-green appear in the foliage near the bottom edge, adding subtle variation to the dominant cool palette.
