A horizontally oriented oil painting with soft, luminous brushstrokes depicts a classical landscape bathed in golden light from a large, hazy sun. Classical architecture lines both banks of a wide river. On the right shore, a group of people with light skin tones gather beneath a tall, dark tree. To the left, three figures travel in a small boat. Swirling clouds in shades of yellow and blue fill the expansive sky.
