This is a drawing of a man holding an umbrella in a flooded landscape. The man is standing on a small elevated patch of land, surrounded by water. He is elegantly dressed, complete with a hat, and holding a closed umbrella, gazing at the scene ahead. In the distance, there are submerged fields and partially flooded houses, while bare trees rise from the water. The style is monochrome with precise lines, adding to the atmosphere of the landscape. The text at the bottom comments on the inconvenience of building a country house on a floodplain near a river.
