Place of origin |
A landscape scene depicting a small settlement near a forest. A pine-forested hill stands in the background. Three stone brick buildings, one with two chimneys stand among beside an stone arch bridge over a small river, with tall pine trees to the right and smaller deciduous trees to the left. A man is standing on the bridge, looking down into the water and an old man and a young child are sitting together by a maple? tree on the rock strewn river bank. A small path, lined on one side by a low brick wall, leads from the lower right hand side of the image to the bridge.
