The image features a landscape with dense foliage and trees on the left, extending towards the middle. The horizon is in the upper third, separating the water from the distant landscape with scattered trees and hills. The water reflects surrounding trees and has detailed vegetation along its edges. The brushwork is intricate, with fine lines depicting trees and vegetation against the smooth water. The color palette is sepia tones of varying intensities.
