In the foreground, the postcard shows the Rhine River with a boat and a rowboat, illustrating the importance of the river for transportation and commerce. The riverfront is lined with historical buildings, capturing the architectural style of the time.

The text "CÖLN a. Rh. Gesamt - Ansicht" translates to "Cologne on the Rhine. Overall View," indicating that this postcard is meant to provide a comprehensive view of the city's skyline.
