Tomorrow will be the same but not as this is

Colin McCahon's 1959 painting "Tomorrow will be the same but not as this is". A portrait orientation large painting shows a dark mountain range, a dark plain, and a grey strip like a body of water between them. The sky is bright, and there is a dark thick line protruding from the top left corner downwards at an angle, stopping two thirds of the way down the sky. Along the base is white thick script of the title
