Description

Subject Matter:

A lanscape view of a river, with a city in the background.

Physical Description:

In this painting, a river stretches from the lower left corner to the middle of the composition. One small rowboat is seen in the middle of the river. Trees line both sides of the composition, receding backwards, and people walk on a path to the right of the river. A city is seen in the distance, and a cloudy blue sky dominates the upper portion of the canvas and is reflected in the river.
