Sepia-toned landscape drawing of a river. Two triangular-rigged sailboats on the water; one on the left side and one on the right. The sailboat on the right has four people on or near it. On the right side, people and donkeys are on the shore; two people are drawing water using a device with ropes and wooden sticks. The sun is setting on the left side. The drawing is titled "HADJAR SILSILIS" in small orange letters at the bottom. The colouring is monochromatic; dark brown to light brown. The horizon line is low. The sky has some clouds. The water reflects the sun. The composition presents a calm scene.
