The image shows a dog hunting in a landscape with a bridge over a river and rolling lands. In the background, there is a structure resembling a castle or house on a promontory, under a cloudy sky. The scene includes tall grass and reeds in the foreground, with a monochromatic palette of blues and grays creating a metallic look. The painting features detailed natural and architectural elements using fine brushstrokes, with a deep blue frame.
