A horizontally oriented drypoint print in black ink depicts a small wooden boathouse sheltered by a cluster of leafy trees. Fine hatching and sketchy lines convey tall grasses reflecting in the water foreground. To the right, a lone figure sits in a boat tied near the bank. In the distant background, birds fly above a low hill with a smoking chimney. A signature and date appear in the lower margin.
