The lid is pierced with geometric and floral patterns that alternate on each facet, and is surmounted by a rounded finial.

- Title
- View of a River Town with a Bridge
- Artist
- Jan van Goyen
- Physical Description
- This small sketch presents a view along a waterway that passes beneath a double-arched bridge. The triangular sail of a small boat is visible just before the bridge, moored to the quai next to some sheds. A tall church with a central steeple rises on the right bank in the foreground, and two other tall buildings punctuate the middle ground and distance. The chimneys and rooflines of humbler dwellings appear on the left bank. Despite the urban setting, only a few figures may be glimpsed, including a man crossing the bridge on horseback.
