The first shows a glimpse of the lake through trees, with Indian men and horses resting at the roadside. Pieces of cloth including what would appear to be a lady's petticoat are lying out to dry at the sides of the road. The second view of Nynee Tal shows the lake with a yacht at the edge. The third view is of an unidentified classical villa and gardens.
