An idyllic shot of grazing cows. Presented amidst lush vegetation, they gaze intently at the viewer.

From the flowery meadow grow single, spreading trees. They provide a natural setting for a small pond fenced off with field stones.

A clump of bushes conceals a squat gate leading to a mysterious space hidden from the viewer. Its inaccessibility is the actual subject of the work.
