Green trees sway gently overhead, filtering light that reflects off the water, while detailed figures in period attire suggest the fashions of the late 19th century.Gilbert's careful balance of warm and cool tones, alongside his representation of light, enhances the overall atmospheric quality of the riverside setting.
