Description

Shows a view looking from the water towards the shore at a point where a river flows out from betwenn wooded banks and background hills. There is a sailing boat at the river's outlet, a flag flying on a pole on the shore beside the outlet, and a few houses on the far bank. A group of figures stands at the far right.

Numerical inscriptions were made by an Auckland conservator in 1999.
