It's a pretty big piece, at 5 feet across, large enough to feel like a grand window onto the landscape. It fills your view, and has a dramatic presence.
The view is towards San Francisco from Mt. Tam, with Mt. Diablo dimly visible off to the left and the Pacific on the right. A spring storm, with it's giant towers of Cumulonimbus cloud is clearing over San Francisco.
Here's an image of it on the easel, so you can get a sense for its scale
