A watercolor painting depicting a shipyard scene by William P. Chappel, titled "Berg's Ship Yard". The painting features a large boat on a slipway, with a wooden fence in front of it. The boat is dark-colored and appears to be under construction or repair. In the foreground, there are two horses, one brown and one white, harnessed to a cart or sled. A person sits on the ground to the left of the horses, and another person stands to the right. A tree is visible on the left side of the image, and a body of water with a few boats is seen in the background. The sky above is cloudy. The overall scene shows a calm and serene atmosphere, with a focus on the shipyard and its activities. The painting is presented on a rectangular piece of paper or canvas with a rough texture.
