This image is created with black ink on white paper. It shows a board house with a boarded up chimney and a partially boarded up window, as well as a lurching dogleg off of the back. In the side yard of the house—which is the lower portion of the image—there are two barren trees and a group of three figures playing with a possum. Behind the group of figures is a fenced garden, and behind the fenced garden is a distant row of homes. There are trees behind the homes.
This ink drawing on paper represents a a tall bridge seen from a low angle that leaves the bridge dominating the composition. From this perspective, the viewer sees the supports of the bridge and its underside, but not the road above. The bridge is surrounded by roughly represented vegetation, and in the upper left of the composition clouds are represented in the sky.
