A large-scale traditional landscape painting executed in oil on stretched canvas. The composition depicts a tranquil river scene at dawn? / dusk?, featuring a winding dirt path in the foreground that leads past a central prominent tree towards a calm body of water. The scene is flanked by dense woodland under a soft, yellow-toned sky. The artist has utilised a combination of blended brushwork for the atmospheric sky and textured impasto techniques to define the foliage, grasses, and path. The painting is housed in a substantial and ornate gilt-composition effect swept frame, decorated with scrolling foliate and shell motifs in high relief. The work is signed MARTIN in brown paint in the lower-left corner.
