Wide, dusty outdoor yard with several trucks parked along a dirt road on the left. Piles of lumber, pallets, and wooden frames lie scattered across the ground in the foreground. In the background are curved-roof structures and other industrial buildings, suggesting a construction or salvage site. The scene is faded and shows some patchy discoloration.
