This painting shows a landscape with a farmhouse. The farmhouse is small and has a dark roof. It is made of light-colored stone. There are trees and bushes around the house. The sky is cloudy and gray. The farmhouse is in the center of the painting. It is surrounded by a field and some trees. The field is empty, but there are some bushes and weeds growing in it. The trees are tall and have green leaves. This painting reminds me of the work of artist Charles François Daubigny.
