Summary

Portrait view of a landscape depicting Welsh mountains in Caernarvonshire, seen from a valley below. The viewer's gaze extends across a highly reflective river and lush woodland, rugged mountains are visible emerging in the distance against a dark clouded sky. Rural farmland is visible in the middle-ground with a tapestry of colours from green to yellow to brown. The roof of a cottage is just visible in the centre of the woodland, emerging from amidst the trees.
