Bridge over an Estuary

Millet, Daubigny en Barbizon,

The image is an artwork showing a waterway with a bridge. Various ships and cranes are visible against a muted sky. The brushstrokes are subtle and sketch-like, giving texture to the slopes and structures. The color palette is mainly grays, blacks, and sepia. In the foreground, a bank slopes down to the water, leading to the bridge spanning the water. In the distance, docked ships and masts are visible.
