The image depicts a rural canal scene in Waltenheim-sur-Zorn, France, under a clear blue sky with scattered white cumulus clouds. In the foreground, a paved path, likely for pedestrians or cyclists, runs along the left side, bordered by dry, yellowish-brown grass. To the right of the path, a calm body of water, identifiable as a canal, extends from the foreground into the mid-ground. The water surface exhibits ripples and reflects the sky and a prominent tree on the opposite bank. Approximately mid-way along the canal on the left side, a dark-colored canal lock structure is visible, featuring gates and associated mechanisms. Beyond the lock, a building with a reddish-brown roof is partially obscured by trees. The right bank of the canal consists of a strip of dry grass, beyond which lies a wide, flat green field. A single deciduous tree with full green foliage stands prominently on this field, roughly centered horizontally in the mid-ground, its reflection visible in the water. Further in the background, more green fields and lines of distant trees are apparent. No people, animals, or vehicles are present in the scene, and no specific actions or interactions are depicted.
