A horizontally oriented oil painting with textured brushstrokes depicts a wide river beneath a cloudy sunset. The water fills the lower half, reflecting dark silhouettes of trees and buildings on the riverbank. In the upper half, patches of yellow and pink light break through gray clouds. A tall, slender tree on the right towers over shorter groves, rising into the hazy sky that occupies the top half of the composition.
