A weathered stone archway, centered in the frame, stands on a flat, light-colored paved surface, casting a long, dark shadow diagonally across the pavement towards the lower right. The archway features two robust rectangular pillars with pointed tops, supporting a semicircular arch. To the immediate left, a low wall constructed from dark, rough-hewn stones borders the paved area, with green grass growing along its base. Beyond the archway, a dark metal fence with an "X" pattern is visible. The view through the archway reveals a calm body of water, identified as the Ill River, extending horizontally. Its banks are densely vegetated with various green trees and bushes. In the distant background to the right, a multi-piered, light-colored bridge, consistent with a railway bridge, spans the water, featuring a white railing or structure on its deck. The sky above is bright blue with scattered, fluffy white cumulus clouds, indicating clear weather and strong sunlight. This scene is located near the Écluse de La Wantzenau (La Wantzenau Lock) on the Ill River in La Wantzenau, France.
