A horizontally oriented etching depicts a wide river flanked by wooden lock structures. On the left, a long beam reaches toward the water; on the right, vertical posts line the bank. Tiny figures stand upon the platforms. Fine, dark lines create dense, expressive foliage in the background. The still water in the foreground shimmers with dark, vertical reflections, contrasting with the vast, pale expanse of a high, open sky.
