St. John's River, Florida

Thomas Moran

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a view from the water toward a distant shoreline with structures. The horizon is visible with the land meeting the sky. There are tall trees on the right side and a small boat with passengers creating ripples in the water. More boats and structures are in the distance. The artwork is a fine etching with detailed linework and a monochromatic color palette of grays.
