The image features a landscape with a woman standing on a dock, looking out over the water. A windmill is visible in the distance to the right, and reeds are growing around the dock. The artwork uses delicate brushstrokes to create an etching-like texture with a monochromatic color palette of soft sepia tones and black lines. The low horizon line separates the sky from the flat landscape, emphasizing the vastness of the scene.
