This drawing shows a quiet valley with a winding river and small houses in the distance. Trees line the banks, and bushes fill the foreground. The lines are simple but detailed, giving a sense of depth. Notice how the artist used shading to make the scene feel three-dimensional. The light areas stand out against the darker trees and water.
