The scene is painted loosely with brushstrokes visible throughout, so some details are difficult to make out. For the surface of the river, russet-brown and steel-gray paint skims lightly across the canvas and leaves some unpainted areas visible, creating the effect of light shimmering on the still water. On our left, a shallow wooden barge is propelled along the stream by two men in red caps with long poles. The boat carries a white horse wearing blinders and a harness. The riverbank beyond is lined with pale, sage-green grass tinged with gold, growing in front of a tangle of darker green trees and bushes. Across the water from us near the middle of the picture, a small rowboat sits in the shallows at the foot of a steep riverbank. Above, a white cottage with a reddish roof and chimney is tucked behind the trees, with a wooden rack full of hay next to it. Nearby, a plow and wheeled cart, highlighted with strokes of white, sit near more mounds of hay. Rocky fields reach into the distance. The vista is blocked to our right by another clump of trees and a rocky outcropping, rising from the stream, to our right of center. The steep, dark roof of a farmhouse is barely visible among the trees. Along the riverside to our right, a small group of cinnamon-brown and cream-white cows stand at water's edge. A rolling pasture stretches behind them to meet blue hills in the distance.

The scene is framed by a silhouette of low boulders along the lower right corner, and a towering cream-white rock rising two-thirds of the way up the composition to our left. Scrubby, celery-green vegetation grows on the rocky outcropping. Near the center, close to the towering white rocks, three people sit, reaching for something near one end of a boat while a fourth person braces against the rock, presumably to push the boat out to the sea. Closer to us, three people on the shore work with a net. Two stand with the net hooked over their shoulders, and a third person crouches in the water with head down. The people all wear simple shirts and pants in shades of tan, mustard yellow, burnt orange, and pale blue. All but two wear hats. The sea meets the shore with frothy white foam and cresting, low waves. The sea beyond fades from pale sage green to arctic blue along the horizon, which comes about a third of the way up the composition. Two sail boats tilt against the wind in the distance. Pale, smoky lavender-purple clouds drift across the ice-blue sky.",{"_295":1128,"_297":1129,"_299":1130},"https://img.ochreeditions.com/m/1552.jpg?dl=1","/art/seashore-with-fishermen-nga-52265","/galleries/style/georgian-britain/seashore-with-fishermen-nga-52265",{"_291":373,"_293":374},{"_225":1125,"_125":1126,"_286":1127},{"_277":1122,"_279":1123,"_281":1106,"_283":1124},142.6,116.65009765625,101.65009765625,{"_288":225,"_123":546,"_154":547,"_140":97},{"_288":125,"_123":368,"_154":369,"_140":370},{"_288":286,"_123":167,"_154":166,"_140":169},"https://img.ochreeditions.com/a/1552/480.jpg","https://img.ochreeditions.com/a/1552/960.jpg","https://img.ochreeditions.com/a/1552/1920.jpg",{"_311":1144,"_313":1145},{"_311":1142,"_313":1143},{"_311":1140,"_313":1141},{"_311":1138,"_313":1139},{"_311":1136,"_313":1137},"#b1a488",0.0916,"#675840",0.1412,"#92918c",0.208,"#312319",0.2166,"#b7bfbc",0.3426,{"_1147":-5,"_1148":1149,"_1150":1151,"_1152":8,"_1153":1154,"_1155":8},"user","csrf","d51b392d1483832659575e911886ed9221db0b3b","cartCount",0,"dropLive","legal",[1156,1157,1158,1159,1160,1161,1162,1163,1164,1165,1166,1167],"uploadsEnabled",{"_222":1190,"_20":1191},{"_222":1188,"_20":1189},{"_222":1186,"_20":1187},{"_222":1184,"_20":1185},{"_222":1182,"_20":1183},{"_222":1180,"_20":1181},{"_222":1178,"_20":1179},{"_222":1176,"_20":1177},{"_222":1174,"_20":1175},{"_222":1172,"_20":1173},{"_222":1170,"_20":1171},{"_222":1168,"_20":1169},"credits","Open-Access Credits","accessibility","Accessibility Statement","vulnerability-disclosure","Vulnerability Disclosure Policy","own-photo","Printing Your Own Photo","copyright","Copyright and DMCA Policy","agents","Agent & API Terms","acceptable-use","Acceptable Use Policy","cookies","Cookie Policy","privacy","Privacy Policy","limited-editions","Limited Editions and Certificates","sale","Terms of Sale","terms","Terms of Use"]
