A horizontally oriented etching in black ink depicts a river scene with spindly trees on the left. A figure in a rimmed hat sits on the bank, facing a large barge with a prominent smokestack. Fine, expressive hatching creates shadows that shimmer across the water. In the distance, an arched bridge spans toward buildings, while light vertical strokes fill the sky, framing the detailed, ink-drawn composition.
