A young East Asian female stands centrally on a bamboo raft on the Li River in Guilin, China, with prominent karst mountains visible in the background. She wears flowing, layered, light-colored traditional robes and holds a dark brown, multi-stringed instrument, resembling a guqin, horizontally across her body with both hands. Her dark hair is styled in a partial updo, and she looks towards the right. The bamboo raft is constructed from lashed poles and features two small, rectangular wooden platforms. To the right of the subject, a traditional fishing net with a wide circular frame and a dark woven basket are present on the raft. The river water exhibits ripples and specular highlights from direct sunlight. The distant riverbank shows green foliage, buildings, and at least two large passenger boats. The sky overhead is clear.
