A horizontally oriented drypoint in fine, scratchy lines on cream paper depicts a river scene. On the left, a tall palm tree stands beside a large wooden boat and several small figures. To the right, a lone figure in a long boat carrying cargo floats on the water. Sharp diagonal lines cross through the entire composition. Centered handwritten text reads "Plate destroyed" above a signature, indicating the printing plate was canceled.
