The image displays a riverscape with a wide, calm river flowing towards the horizon. Dense trees line the riverbanks on both sides. The drawing style is detailed and sketchy, resembling etching techniques, with monochromatic black ink on a cream background creating stark contrasts. The reflections of the trees are delicately depicted in the water.
