The image shows a calm scene at water level, slightly to the side of a body of water. The horizon is at the midpoint, where land and sky meet. Structures like a windmill and red brick buildings are visible on the horizon. The painting has soft brushstrokes, giving the water a reflective quality. The color palette includes hues of pale blue, soft whites, and earthy browns. In the foreground, two figures in a boat are handling a net, with reeds nearby. In the background, there are trees against a cloud-filled sky.
