Comments
The sepia-colored saucer illustrates two men fishing along a river with three cows in the foreground, three ducks on the river, and a prominent tree on the opposite shore. A bridge, a house, and a sail boat are in the distance. A simple cross-hatched or diamond band encircles the inside of the rim, and another band runs around the base of the sidewall.
