The portrait-style artwork depicts a young woman sitting by a river, fully engrossed in her fishing activity. The young lady's direct gaze towards the camera adds an element of intimacy and connection with the viewer. Her attire, including a red hat and garment, reflects the fashion trends of the time period. Her intricate hairstyle with ringlets cascading down further enhances her elegant appearance. Egley's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of natural elements such as trees and water, creating a serene backdrop for this recreational scene. The artist skillfully uses color to bring life to the canvas, showcasing his mastery over oil painting techniques. This artwork not only showcases Egley's talent but also provides us with insight into how people spent their freetime during this era.
