The painting conveys a simplified rendering of a patio. A light brown stripe runs along the lower portion of the scene. The building is painted in a slightly darker brown, while a square opening in the center of the building is an even deeper shade of brown. A strip of blue sky parallels the upper edge of the canvas.
