A vertically oriented photogravure in muted gray tones features dark, silhouetted maple-like leaves hanging from the top and upper left. The central and lower sections depict rippled water with a hazy vertical band of light descending through the middle. Near the bottom, five light-colored ducks swim toward the right. The entire soft-focused composition has a grainy texture, creating an atmospheric, dreamlike scene.
