A river landscape with boats and a mountain in the background. The boats are in the foreground and midground. There are two larger boats at the front right and left, and several smaller boats scattered behind them. The boats are mostly orange with dark roofs and have people on them. The person on the large boat on the left is holding an oar. The boat on the left has a white net. The boats on the right have dark green and orange roofs. The water is blue with white ripples around the boats. There is an island in the midground with vegetation. There are poles sticking up on the left side of the island. The background shows a snow-capped mountain on the left, and trees on the right. The sky fades from dark blue at the top to yellow, then white near the horizon.
