This is a black and white etching or engraving featuring a dramatic rural landscape during a storm. In the foreground, there is a wooden cart, apparently stuck or abandoned, being pulled by two oxen. One ox is lying on the ground, suggesting it might have collapsed, while the other stands beside it. A man, possibly the driver or farmer, stands near the oxen, holding a stick and looking toward the animals in a contemplative pose.
Behind them, the terrain is uneven and rocky, with a stream cutting through the landscape. Large, leafy trees dominate the left side of the image, some of which appear to be bending or broken, indicating the possible strength of the storm. A bolt of lightning splits the sky above, illuminating the clouds and providing contrast to the otherwise dark and tempestuous atmosphere.
In the background, on the right side, there are silhouettes of buildings suggestive of a town, including towers which might belong to a church or castle. An arched structure, possibly an old aqueduct or bridge ruin, is visible on the left, adding a sense of history and decay to the scene. The overall mood is one of tension and a struggle against natural forces. The artistic technique used achieves a high level of detail, evident in the textures of the trees, rocks, and clouds, imparting a sense of the sublime in nature.

The image is an engraved artwork depicting a pastoral landscape with dramatic natural elements. In the foreground, there is a river or stream with turbulent water flowing around large rocks. A fallen tree lies across the water, adding to the sense of chaos. On one side of the river, there is a man moving a cart pulled by two oxen or cows, struggling to traverse the challenging environment.
In the middle ground, a large, leafy tree dominates the scene, with its branches spreading out in various directions. Lightning strikes from the sky, adding a sense of drama and tension to the scene. Behind the tree, there are more trees and dense foliage, leading up to a hilly area.
In the background, on top of the hill, there are structures that resemble buildings or ruins, possibly including a castle or a large manor, with towers or a dome. The sky is filled with dark, ominous clouds, indicative of an approaching storm.
The overall composition presents a moment of hardship in nature, with the elements creating a dramatic and intense atmosphere.
