The image shows a night scene with ships on the water. The horizon is below the middle, with ships silhouetted in the center and to the right. The brushstrokes are soft, creating a diffuse effect. The color palette is black, gray, and pale. Moonlight casts a glow on the water's surface. A structure stands in the distance. The moon is partially hidden by clouds on the left, providing the only light source.
