Description

Landscape print showing a road running alongside a narrow, flat river. The grass-covered embankment between the road and water is lined with trees. Figures in the foreground include two young boys throwing rocks into the water, a girl picking flowers, and a girl or woman watching the two boys. In the middle ground, a wagon full of wood travels down the road and two horses drink from the river. There is a house by the road with more buildings lining that side of the road, and the dome of Vermont's statehouse at the center above the tree line.
