A horizontally oriented oil painting depicts a river under a heavy sky of gray clouds. Along the central axis, a cluster of tall trees with green and reddish foliage stands on an island, mirrored in still water. To the left, a dark hill slopes toward the bank, while orange-brown trees line the distant right bank. The lower canvas shows shallow water and muddy banks, rendered with loose, textured brushstrokes.
