Soft and azure and colloidal, more cloud than mist. Swimming thickly amidst the upper, middle, and lower ranges of the great Himalayas, making for a composite view. In the foreground is a ridge of the lower Himalayan range. It is dark and coated with green. In the far background is the upper range: snow-capped peaks, giving off a crystal sheen against the sun.

High above the upper range is a stretch of glamorous azure sky. It is made with layered brushstrokes dipped in the same tint of blue, which gives the impression of clear skies. This solid-coloured stretch brings out the beauty of the mountains under it.

Midway through are some smaller mountains of the middle Himalayan range, whose peaks are barely visible through the mist. The artist has employed both colour and texture in order to create an aura of mystery about them.
