DescriptionUnstretched. Image of a picnic and a couple enjoying a boat ride on a river in France. At the foreground, a picnic blanket (blue) can be seen on the grassy shore of the river, which takes up about half of the image (diagonal, from upper left to lower middle right). Items such as a basket with an umbrella and bottles, a baguette, hat, plates, and guitar over a piece of paper with French writing are on the blanket. In the upper right half of the image, two figures face each other on a small, blue boat; in the background, a quaint house and hillside (yellow) are across the river.
