DescriptionA storm rolls in to a seaside town. The walled city can be seen in the distant background, nestled into the base of a rocky hillside. Along the coastline, small boasts make their way to the shore. At left, just behind a gnarled dead tree, a shepherd and his flock watch the storm approach from the safety of a grassy knoll. In the foreground on the far left, two weary travelers walk along a path, both hunched over, one carrying a staff and clutching his head in his hands.
