The painting depicts a serene scene with a body of water occupying the lower half. The water is calm, reflecting the colors of the sky. A small boat with two people is in the water, near the bottom center. The right side of the painting features a silhouette of trees and land. The left side shows a smaller landmass with trees and a distant sailing ship. The sky above transitions from orange at the horizon to yellowish-gray towards the top. The overall color palette is muted, with warm tones dominating the scene.
