Artist, Scottish, 1865 - 1945

The image shows a view from slightly above water level on a river, featuring a row of large stone arches of a bridge or dock structure to the left. The horizon is mostly obscured by the structures and water, with buildings and ship masts visible on the distant riverbank. The artwork is monochromatic, with detailed etching lines creating depth and texture, and cross-hatching used for shadows. The river extends into the distance, with small boats, one with a dark sail, moving on the water. The scene has a subtle and muted tone, using shading and line work to depict an urban riverfront setting.
