About this subject

A calm lake in the foreground reflects a densely wooded shoreline. Along the sandy beach are a small boathouse or pavilion, a white building with a red roof, and a few bathers, with a rowboat moored at the left. Low hills or mountains rise faintly behind the treeline under a blue sky.
