The image shows Niagara Falls seen from Table Rock. The falls dominate the scene, with a strip of greenery and trees marking the horizon. The water is portrayed using fine brushstrokes to depict movement and texture. The color scheme includes blues, greens, and earth tones. Near the viewer, there are coniferous trees and a man with a dog observing the falls. In the distance, the landscape fades into mist.
