Description

A waterfall descends in the centre from a steep mountain slope on which is much vegetation; very rough and jagged rocks towards the centre and bottom of the fall; the water falls into a calm steam in the foreground; at the bottom of the fall is a bank on which two figures stand with a dog, and another figure sits in a boat in the water. Etching with hand-colouring.
