Geese and ducks rest on the bank of a pond, while a white duck with a puffy round crest swims on the water. Partially obscured by trees, a garden pavilion with a surrounding balustrade and statues appears on the left. Further buildings are visible in the distance; on the right stands a dead, ivy-covered tree stump.
