The image shows a landscape with a stone bridge crossing a river. The horizon is near the top, marked by the bridge and a small structure atop an arch. Loose brushstrokes give the painting a light quality. The color palette is soft, with beige, brown, and green dominating the ground and light blue for the sky. Near the viewer, there is sparse vegetation and figures near a path. In the distance, a row of trees lines the right side.
