Watercolor and India ink on paper showing a view of the Jones residence perched atop a knoll overlooking Hobart Beach on Eatons Neck. Foreground features man fishing off sandy beach to left with shrubbery behind and basket sitting beside him; small sailing vessel moored in the water to a pier in center, sailboat and rowboat to far right side in the water. Midground to right side shows gaff-rigged sloop moored to a small dock on the far side of the inlet, small outbuilding standing on the coast next to the dock; wooded knoll sits prominently in the center, a three-story residence perched on top with a flag pole flying an American flag; two sailing vessels in the water beyond to the far left side, lighthouse just visible adjacent to them along the coastline. Background obscured owing to the picture's perspective, lightly blue-pigmented sky above with white clouds.
