The view is from a low angle, looking across a body of water towards distant land. The horizon is above the central part of the image. A grove of palms is on the horizon, separating the water from the sky. The brushstrokes are soft and atmospheric with blurred edges. The color scheme consists of warm earth tones and grays, with soft white highlights on the water and distant features.
