The image shows a calm autumn landscape along the bank of a wide body of water, where trees on the slope create a dense wall of foliage in shifting seasonal colors. In the foreground, vibrant yellows and greens highlight the transition of autumn, while large branches extend outward above the incline toward the water. Fallen leaves scattered on the ground signal the early stages of leaf fall.

Across the water lies a broad, tranquil stretch of the Daugava, its surface gently rippled. The distant shoreline is bordered by a forest displaying muted autumn shades—greens, yellows, and soft oranges blending into a continuous band. The sky is partly cloudy, its pale gray-blue tones complementing the calm appearance of the river.

Overall, the scene conveys a balanced, natural atmosphere where quietness and open space are as striking as the colors themselves. The layered foliage, expansive water, and distant treeline merge into a cohesive portrayal of a peaceful autumn day by the Daugava.
