The image shows a low vantage point overlooking a river leading to an arched stone bridge. The horizon is defined by the meeting of the river and distant landscape with bare trees and a bridge with two arches. The brushstrokes are sketch-like, creating a spontaneous feel. The color palette is monochrome, contrasting dark ink with cream paper. There is a small boat near the shore, with the river and bridge dominating the scene. In the distance, leafless trees stand out against the sky.
