A person is seen from behind, sitting by a wide body of water, engaged in fishing. They are dressed in a dark jacket with a light blue section, wearing a hat, and are holding a fishing rod that extends into the water. Various fishing equipment, including other rods, a chair, and a box, are set up around them. A small clump of bare bushes or trees grows on the bank near the fisher. The water is calm, and a distant landmass with a faint tree line is visible across the water. The sky is overcast and light grey. Three white swans fly in a V-formation across the sky above the fisher, moving from right to left. The scene is set in Nikolo-Beryozovka, Russia.
