The image is a black and white photograph of a Japanese style garden with a large wooden gate. The gate is made of two tall, vertical posts that are connected by a horizontal beam. The beam has a crossbeam near the top that gives the gate a "T" shape. The gate is framed by trees on either side. There is a path that leads through the gate towards the viewer. The path is lined with small, stone lanterns on either side. The lanterns are about the height of a person's knees and each has a small, rounded top. Behind the gate, there is a small, traditional Japanese building with a tiled roof. It has several doors and windows and is framed by green trees. In the background there is a large patch of lawn bordered by a wooden fence and a row of evergreen trees. The image appears to have been taken on a partly cloudy day. The light in the image is soft and diffused, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere.
