A horizontally oriented color etching and aquatint depicts a woman walking toward us on the right. She wears a voluminous dark cape and a clover-patterned skirt, holding a rose bouquet. To our left, a wooden bridge joins a sandy bank to a small ferry. Fine lines and soft washes of color define a harbor in the background, where numerous sailing ships crowd together beneath a hazy, pale sky.
