A horizontally oriented photogravure looks over rippling water toward stone building facades. The dark water of a canal, reflecting light in shimmering streaks, fills the foreground. In the middle ground, two figures with light skin tones in white tops navigate a gondola past several tall mooring poles. Behind them, stone buildings feature rectangular windows and arched doorways. The entire scene is rendered in muted tones with a soft focus and grainy texture.
