The etching by J. André Smith depicts a picturesque riverside scene dominated by a large, rustic building with distinct window panes and a sloped roof. The structure is set along a calm, reflective body of water, where a narrow boat is gently docked. Adjacent buildings made with similar materials and architectural styles are visible, and the foreground showcases lush vegetation. Fine lines intricately represent shadows and textures, contributing to a sense of depth and detail.
