A wide highland landscape of dry golden grassland under a cloudy sky, with brown rocky hills rising behind. A herd of yaks, mostly black with some white ones, is grouped across the grass in the foreground. Two herders stand among them: one walking on foot in dark clothing in the centre, and another mounted on a small horse at the right. A low wire fence runs along the middle distance below the hills.
