Description

A man, a boy, and a dog are in a lake or pond, standing on a raft-like contraption that seems to be made of wood. Both humans seem to be holding paddles or levers and are wearing suits and straw hats. Far in the foreground is a sandy shore and some grasses, and in the background are trees and beyond them, hills or mountains in the distance.
