The image is a painting of a gondola in Venice, Italy. The painting is displayed on a yellow pedestal in the center of the image. The gondolier is wearing a red and white striped shirt and a straw hat, and is holding a paddle in his right hand. He is standing on the side of the boat, which is painted in a realistic style. The boat is brown and has a curved shape, with a pointed nose and a pointed stern. The background of the painting shows a canal with buildings and a bridge in the distance. The sky is blue and the water is a deep blue-green color. There are two white columns on either side of this painting, and a red trash can can on the ground next to it.
