Seascape Fantasy
The painting depicts a harbor scene. A large red ship with three masts and billowing sails is centered. The ship has a row of cannons on its side, and smoke rises from it. A smaller ship with a single mast is on the left. A tree is on the left edge. A city skyline with a tall tower on the right stretches across the background. A wall runs along the waterfront. Small boats are in the foreground. The sky is cloudy and brown. The scene appears to be a fantasy representation of a harbor, hence the title "Seascape Fantasy". The artist is unknown.
