A view of the Italian landscape painted from a hilltop village. There are red-roofed buildings; a road leading downhill on the left; tunnels under the houses; evergreens behind a bend in the road; and a wall running along the road side. There are low, blue mountains in the distance.
The town of Fiesole sits on a hill in the distance. A single straight tree rises on the hillside on the right.
