Pink and orange clouds stretch across the windows of a wooden tram, then appear again in the still water below. Small clumps of grasses break the reflection near the horizon, giving the broad flooded plain a delicate sense of distance. Inside, warm lamps follow the curve of the timber ceiling, their light catching brass fittings and the edges of slatted seats.

A girl sits by an open window with her chin resting on her folded arms. Her long dark hair falls over a navy pinafore and white blouse. A small carved pumpkin glows on the seat beside her, while a worn brown suitcase stands at her feet. The remaining rows of seats are empty, receding quietly toward the far end of the carriage.

The photograph brings the reflected sky and sheltered interior together through colour. Amber wood echoes the sunset, and deep green lower panels hold the shadows beneath the windows. Fine scratches, polished metal and soft cloth give the scene a tangible calm. The view feels suspended between the warm carriage and the enormous open evening outside.
