DescriptionA watercolor landscape of a river depicts still water drawing the viewer down the narrowing waterway. Fall foliage is clustered along the right bank and across the horizon. Reflections of the tress can be seen in the water. Tall grass is in left foreground, and open fields extend along the left river bank. A split rail fence runs down to water's edge, at left center, ending near a dead tree. The sky is blue with faint clouds.On View
