A landscape of an old wooden bridge, open field in the background with trees on horizon and a sunset sky.

A rutted dirt road comes in from the lower right with the small wooden bridge angled towards the left, crossing over a narrow stream. The water reflects the lighter part of the sky, appearing to be brighter than the distant landscape. Across the bridge is an open field of windblown grasses. Dark clouds from the right hover over the scene as the sun sets over a distant village with trees, rooftops, and a windmill dotting the horizon in silhouette. The print is made with warm tones of ochres and browns. Signed in lower right margin.
