Fishermen by an Island Watermill

Aegidius Sadeler II after Pieter Stevens

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a landscape scene with a river or pond in the foreground. Close to the water, people and animals engage in various activities. The river curves into the distance, leading to a village or town with hills in the background. A watermill is partly hidden by trees on the right. The trees are detailed, framing the sky. The color scheme is mainly grey, conveying depth and atmosphere.
