The painting depicts a seascape with a large body of water and a rocky shoreline. The water is dark green with white waves crashing against the rocks. In the distance, there are two sailboats on the horizon. The sky above is gray and cloudy. A large red rocky outcrop dominates the foreground, with some greenery visible on the right side. The overall atmosphere suggests an overcast day. The title of the painting is "The Sea" and it was created by John Frederick Kensett.
