A small, white, long-haired dog, likely a Maltese, is seated upright on a light-colored wooden deck, centered in the frame. The dog features a prominent dark topknot and exhibits a small amount of dark debris on its muzzle and chin. Its gaze is directed slightly to the viewer's right. The immediate background behind the deck consists of green and yellowish-brown grassy terrain. Beyond this, a body of water, identified as the River Seine, is visible, reflecting the overcast grey sky. The far bank of the river is densely lined with trees displaying green, yellow, and orange foliage, indicative of autumn. In the distant background, against the muted sky, a tall, slender industrial tower and other faint structures are discernible. This scene is located in Épinay-sur-Seine, France, specifically from a property or elevated vantage point along the banks of the Seine River.
