Venetian Canal and Boats No. 8 by Robert Frederick Blum: A black-and-white sketch of a canal with several boats docked along the water's edge. The boats are mostly small and flat-bottomed. A woman wearing a hat stands on the left side, looking down. Buildings line the canal, with one large, multi-story building on the left featuring a tower and a tiled roof. Other buildings have tiled roofs. People are sitting and standing on the edge of the canal. The sky is cloudy. The image is framed by a thin border with rounded corners.
