Mill with Bridge and Figures

Französische Grafik 1781–1788,

The image shows a rural scene with a house, path, water, bridge, figures, trees, and clouds. The house has a thatched roof and beige walls. A path leads to the water's edge where wooden beams and barrels are. A stream flows behind the house, crossed by a small bridge with two figures. In the distance, another thatched building is seen through the trees. The style includes fluid brushstrokes for the trees and foliage. Earth tones and muted greens dominate the color palette. The sky has washes of light gray and beige.
