A vibrant watercolour depicting a riverside view looking lengthwise instead of across the river, a rocky outcropping looming over a sandy beach where a canoe is tethered. There are trees in the distance, and undulating clouds.

A head-and-shoulders oil painting of James Coristine, wearing a black coat and cravat, white collar and shirt. He looks to be between the ages of 30-40, with side-parted dark hair, and long sideburns. His expression is calm, though his complexion is flushed; he gazes into the distance to the right of the viewer.
