The image depicts a picturesque waterfall scene, with cascades of water flowing over rocky outcrops into frothy pools below. The landscape is lush and green, with dense vegetation surrounding the falls. In the background, a rugged hillside rises steeply from the base of the fall, dotted with trees and shrubs that add to the natural beauty of the scene.

The photograph has an antique quality, indicative of early 20th-century printing techniques such as photochrom or lithography which were popular during this period. This particular image is likely a postcard or print created in Sebenico (modern-day Senj) on the Mrežnica River's middle falls near Medjugorje, Dalmatia, Austro-Hungary between approximately 1890 and around 1900.
