The image depicts a scene with a body of water, distant land with buildings and trees, a large sailing ship in the foreground, smaller boats scattered in the water, figures on steps in the lower-right corner, and a sky with clouds. The artwork uses fine lines and soft brushstrokes in a monochromatic sepia color palette to show movement and texture.
