The image shows a perspective from a shore looking across water towards a cityscape. The skyline of the city features pointed and dome-like structures. The sketch-like style uses sparse lines to create a sense of the city's silhouette with buildings, chimneys, and smokestacks. Boats are faintly visible on the water. The color palette is monochrome with a parchment background and dark pencil strokes.
