A striking white-and-red hill rises from an expansive landscape of weathered rock and pale earth. Bands of colour trace the contours of its slopes, while darker cliffs in the foreground lead the eye towards a distant horizon. The unusual geological forms and restrained light give the scene an almost otherworldly quality.
