The image features a coastal area with a body of water below. The horizon line splits the sky from the land and water. There are medieval-style fortified structures on the horizon with towers and buildings. The artwork appears to be done in an etching technique with fine, linear brushstrokes to depict detail. The sky shows clouds, sunbeams, and a radiant sun. The color scheme is monochromatic, using shades of black on a light tan or cream background.
