This is a drawing of a person fishing on an icy surface. The drawing features a figure wearing a formal coat and top hat, standing on patches of ice with a fishing rod extended into a body of water with visible ice flows around them. In the background, there are outlines of architectural structures, which suggest a town or city. The foreground of the drawing shows three-dimensional ice cuts adding depth, and the use of shading brings texture to the coat and the icy surface. Handwritten text adorns the top and bottom of the drawing.
