The Hydraulic Machine by Charles François Daubigny is a black and white sketch of a landscape. The scene features a body of water in the foreground with trees on either side and in the background. The trees on the right are larger and more prominent. The body of water stretches into the background, where there are more trees and what appears to be a building or structure. The sky above is light with some darker clouds. The image is rendered in a cross-hatch style with dense, intersecting lines creating shading and texture. The overall effect is one of a serene and natural setting. The image has a rectangular shape with a white border around it.
