The composition employs dramatic scale contrasts, with oversized trees and clouds dwarfing the diminutive house below. Prina's expressive brushwork unifies the forms of trees and clouds in a single dynamic movement across the canvas, capturing the energy of the storm.

The palette contrasts greens and blues in the landscape with dark greys and whites in the dramatic sky above, while the red roof of the house provides a warm grounding accent.
