The small smokestack of a train is poking through some faraway trees in the upper right of this work. This painting was its artist's first public exhibition along with a portrait owned by Mr. Messhert. Some wispy white clouds are prominent at the top of this painting, though no reflection can be found in the water. The artist can himself be seen in the titular object which bears his name and the year of creation, 1871, and a similar theme to this painting is found in its artist's portrayal of the Biglin brothers. A steamboat can be seen in the background of this painting, in front of which lie two bridges and a red three-person canoe. Four ducks swim to the right of several trees, whose reflection in the water is disturbed by an oar. For 10 points, identify this painting whose title figure is staring at the viewer sitting in the title object, a work set on the Schuylkill River produced by Thomas Eakins.
