The image shows sailboats on the water with an angled downward perspective. Buildings along the shoreline obscure the horizon. The background features a dark silhouette of buildings against a lighter sky. The pencil hatching creates shading in the sails and sky, conveying movement. The color scheme is monochromatic, emphasizing light and shadow contrasts. The sailboats have white sails, and the water is depicted with swirling lines. In the distance, there is a small rowboat with a flag.
