The composition centers on a lone tree next to a stone bridge over a small waterfall, with figures both fishing and at rest in the foreground. Low hills in the distance stretch across the composition, and a large cumulus cloud structure dominates the upper right corner of the frame. The original canvas was relined in the first half of the 20th century. Recently the canvas has been professionally surface cleaned, re-lined, and re-mounted to a new museum grade stretcher and framed in a gilt molding.
