The image depicts the Thiou canal in Annecy, France, with the iconic Palais de l'Isle centrally positioned on an island. The Palais de l'Isle is a multi-story stone building featuring prominent conical and pyramidal reddish-brown tiled roofs and small windows. The building's base is directly submerged in the canal's clear, rippled water, which reveals a visible rocky bottom. On the left bank of the canal, a row of tall, narrow buildings with pastel-colored facades (pink, yellow, cream, light blue) are visible, some with closed shutters and awnings extending over what appear to be outdoor seating areas of businesses. A dark metal railing partially obstructs the view in the bottom left foreground. Beyond the Palais de l'Isle, in the background, an arched stone bridge spans the canal. More multi-story buildings line the canal banks on both sides. Several indistinct human figures are visible on the bridge and the distant banks. A bare tree stands behind the Palais de l'Isle. The sky above is light blue with scattered white cumulus clouds. A white bird, possibly a seagull, is captured mid-flight with outstretched wings above the water on the right side of the canal, near the Palais de l'Isle. Other small white shapes are present on the water's surface near the building. The scene is illuminated by natural light, casting reflections on the water.
