A horizontally oriented etching depicts a landscape of a still pond. In the foreground, fine hatching creates reflections of dense foliage and two tall, slender trees on the left. Thick reeds cluster on the right where a dark bird flies. In the center, building roofs peek through a grove of leafy trees. The pale sky is empty of clouds. A signature and date are written in the bottom right corner.
