A photograph of a hillside landscape with a tall structure rising above dense green trees and scrubby bushes. The structure is a multi-faced monument with a domed, lattice-textured top crowned with a finial, and several large white sculpted faces with yellow-trimmed bands visible on its tiers, one face looking outward over the trees. Bare rocky ground and a few slender trees, including a birch-like tree on the left, frame the foreground under an overcast white sky. No people are visible.
