The scene depicts a lakeside park or promenade located in Jiangning District, China, under an overcast sky. In the foreground, a paved pathway with a reddish border runs diagonally, bordered by a strip of green grass and another paved area to the right. A circular manhole cover is visible on the left side of this pathway. The midground features a large body of water (a lake) with an urban skyline of numerous high-rise buildings visible on the distant bank. Along the near side of the lake, a paved pedestrian promenade is bordered by a metal railing. Various trees line this promenade, including several with bare branches (deciduous) and some with full green foliage. Many tree trunks are painted white at their bases. Flowering bushes with pink and purple blossoms are interspersed among the trees, with a prominent tree displaying dense pink blossoms in the mid-right. Two individuals, an adult wearing a light brown jacket and dark pants, and a child in a plaid shirt and dark pants, are walking away from the viewer on the main paved pathway in the mid-right. Another person in dark clothing is partially visible further down the path near the water's edge. In the far distance, across the lake, several indistinct figures are seated on benches.
