In the background on the right hand side is a cliff with figures standing on the edge. On the left hand side is another cliff where houses reside. The sky reflects a cloudy day, and either a sunrise or sunset. Done on canvas board. White paper label on back with black print: "BEVERLY CANVAS PANEL/ Size 16 x 20/ The Morella Company/ New York".
