A woman in a pale dress stands near the center, gazing towards the ruins, while others walk or stand nearby, set against a backdrop of old buildings and a clear sky with a prominent cloud.

The artist employs chiaroscuro, using deep shadows, particularly within the archway, to create a dramatic effect by contrasting with the brightly lit sky and distant structures.
