Black and white sketch of a young boy sitting on a low wall or ledge, fishing. The boy wears a cap and sits with his body facing right. His fishing rod extends over the water in front. He sits beneath a large tree with sprawling bare branches. The tree has a wide trunk that branches into multiple limbs. The background has minimal shading. The sketch appears to be on white paper, slightly textured and curled at the corners. The artist's name appears in the bottom right corner.
