A horizontally oriented black ink drawing depicts a view from inside a barn through an open doorway. Sparse, minimalist lines define the interior walls and a door swung open on the right. Through the central opening, fine hatched lines create a textured landscape with a grassy path leading toward a line of spindly trees on a hill. The unshaded sky and foreground contrast with the detailed outdoor scene, focusing the eye through the frame.
