A horizontally oriented etching with fine, dark lines on cream paper depicts Battersea Reach. In the foreground, cross-hatched strokes form figures on a pier beside two masts, while a person sits alone to the right. A wide river contains sketched vessels flowing toward a distant cityscape of gabled houses and a church spire. Handwritten text marks the upper right. Above, a blank sky emphasizes the detailed shoreline and quiet, hazy horizon.
