Black and white image of a man fishing. The man sits on a rock on the left bank of a small body of water. He wears a flat cap, jacket, and pants. A wicker basket sits on the ground beside him. His body faces right as he looks across the water. His right arm bends to hold a long fishing pole. The man casts his line towards the middle of the water. A tree grows on the bank beside him on the left. Its roots form a low hill. Further right trees grow on a higher bank. The sky is light, with darker lines suggesting clouds. Text along the bottom reads 'Pêche au vif'.
