A botanist wearing a brown cloak and a tall straw hat sits, centre, facing half to the left, examining flora which he has collected. A black goat sits behind him eating specimens of leaves from his pocket. A rocky outcrop to the right echoes the form of the hunched figure; the ground drops to a valley floor below, with mountains beyond.
