Under a cloudy sky filled with dark, ominous clouds, a landscape is presented with a metallic windmill positioned on the left side and a dilapidated wooden house situated on the right side. The windmill is constructed of a metal framework and features a tall tower, metallic blades, and a red water tank at its base. The house is built from weathered wooden planks and has a brown shingled roof with a red brick chimney. It has several window openings, all without glass, and an open doorway. The ground is covered in dry, yellow grass. A wooden fence made of posts and wire is visible in the mid-left background, and a pile of hay or straw is located behind the house to the left, closer to the fence.
