The scene, located in North Norfolk, United Kingdom, depicts a large, leafless deciduous tree dominating the foreground. The tree features a thick, gnarled trunk with textured bark and an expansive network of bare branches, some displaying patches of yellow-green lichen. It stands on a green, moss-covered grassy bank that slopes down to a wide body of rippled, grey-blue water, consistent with a lake or river. The water's surface reflects an overcast, light grey sky, which fills the upper portion of the frame. In the mid-ground and background, additional bare trees are discernible along the distant shoreline. No individuals, animals, or artificial structures are present within the frame.
