Arthur Wesley Dow

Cleveland Museum of Art

The painting depicts a bridge over a body of water. The bridge is on the right side and goes from the bottom-right to the top-right. The bridge has railings on the right side. The bridge is painted with large irregular shapes of blue and brown. The body of water underneath the bridge reflects the bridge. The reflection is painted with rough shapes of green, blue, yellow and brown. On the left side are green trees. Behind the trees, there are brown and orange buildings. A bright orange building with a blue roof and a red chimney are visible. The sky is beige. The painting is done in muted colors with visible texture.
