A horizontal lithograph in muted beige and gray depicts a riverside city landscape. In the lower foreground, large stone ruins sit within the water, while a bridge with arched spans extends from the right toward a gateway. Behind it, a cathedral complex features a tall, tiered bell tower. Rolling mountains rise in the background, outlined with delicate hatching. On the bottom right, two small figures sit on the riverbank.
