This lithograph, sized 24" x 21", features a scene of a river with several boats navigating its waters. The central element is a large steamboat, likely a paddle wheeler, with passengers visible on its decks. The surrounding landscape includes a town or city in the background, with buildings and structures visible along the riverbank. The artwork captures a moment of bustling activity on the river, with the steamboat and smaller vessels going about their business. The use of shading and texture in the lithograph adds depth and dimension to the scene, creating a sense of atmosphere and movement. The title, "The Pride of the River," suggests the steamboat is a symbol of pride and progress, while the inscription "S. Rambert L'ile Barbe" likely refers to the location depicted in the artwork.
