Description
The painting depicts a mountainous landscape with a waterfall cascading down rugged rock formations. The horizon is obscured by towering trees and rocks. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, with a watercolor technique merging colors. The color palette includes deep greens, browns, and hints of blues and ochres. A stream reflects the surroundings, with a small figure near the water. In the distance, trees blend into a hazy background.
