The image shows a harbor from a low perspective, looking towards the port. There are buildings along the horizon. There are several ships and boats close to the viewer. The artwork features intricate line work and cross-hatching to depict movement and texture. The color scheme is limited to sepia tones, creating a vintage look. The buildings in the background are subtly portrayed, shifting focus to the ships and water details.
