A vertically oriented etching depicts a Venetian canal scene with expressive, sketchy lines. In the center, a stone bridge arches over a gondola containing two figures. A man with light skin leans against a low wall in the left foreground, while smaller figures appear on the bridge and distant balconies. Tall buildings with shutters line the waterway. Handwritten text at the bottom right reads "Ponte Paradiso Venezia," with a signature, "John Marin," below.
