The image depicts an urban waterway scene with a bridge at the center, arching across the water. The perspective is from below, showing the bridge dividing the water and sky. Buildings line the horizon on the right side of the bridge. The buildings have visible windows and textures, sketched with fine brushstrokes. People populate the bridge, with one individual on the right carrying an object. The reflection of the bridge and buildings is seen on the water's surface with fine strokes. The color palette is sepia, giving the image an aged look. The sky has swirling patterns contrasting with the linear water texture.
