DescriptionView of a road that runs between large rocks or small rocky mountains somewhere in France. At at least one section there is an outcroping of rock that extends over the road from the left. There are a few utility poles and corresponding wires running along the right side of the road, spaced apart at intervals. The road itself is flanked on the left by the mountain and bordered on the right by what appears to be a stone wall.
