DescriptionThree white mountain goats on the side of a mountain. One goat is seated while the other two stand behind it looking towards the right. A large rock rises up behind the three goats and some grass grows out of the mountain. Snowy peaks can be seen in the distance and a few clouds are in the blue sky.
