This painting captures a serene twilight scene along the Seine river, with tall reeds and vegetation lining both banks. The sky features dramatic brushstrokes of salmon pink and pale blue, suggesting the fading light of dusk. A narrow channel of water cuts through the center, reflecting the sky's colors in rippled patterns on its surface. Dark trees or bushes on the left bank lean slightly in what appears to be an evening breeze. The overall palette is dominated by cool blues and greens, warmed by the orange-pink tones of the sunset sky and its reflections. The brushwork is loose and expressive, particularly in the way the reeds and foliage are rendered with quick, gestural strokes. The composition creates a strong sense of depth through the central waterway that leads the eye into the distance.
