This print shows a waterside scene with the shore on the left and the water on the right. In the distance, there are several buildings on the horizon. People are scattered throughout the scene, some sitting on a bench under an umbrella, others walking on the long street by the water. A rowboat with a few passengers is on the water to the right, in front of a larger vessel moored at a dock. A group of people is boarding the larger boat using a long bridge. The color scheme is monochrome, with fine, dark lines on sepia paper.
