The image shows a riverside view with several moored boats across the water. Two men in nautical attire stand on the deck of the nearest boat. The boat is detailed and the river stretches towards buildings on the opposite shore. In the distance, a bridge spans the river, with smaller boats around. Buildings on the other side of the river have intricate line work suggesting an industrial nature. The horizon is just above the bridge, intersecting the mass of buildings with spires and domes. The artwork features precise etchings and a monochromatic palette emphasizing light and shadow, creating a clear and deep scene.
