The painting's composition emphasizes the tranquil interaction between the vibrant red of the boat and the cool, reflective surface of the river. Beder's brushwork conveys a sense of peaceful solitude, capturing the stillness of a moment spent in nature.

The scene is rendered with meticulous detail, showcasing Beder's skill in capturing both the texture of the boat and the subtleties of the water’s surface. The distance between the rowboat and the trees in the background creates a sense of depth, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the calmness of the riverbank.
