The image shows a coastal scene with a horizon dividing the composition at the upper fifth. Trees, small buildings, and sailboats are visible along the horizon, against a sky background. The artwork features delicate lines, creating an etching-like impression. The color palette is monochromatic in a light sepia tone. Figures are seen wading in shallow water, engaging in leisurely activities. Wispy clouds are depicted in the sky with gentle strokes.
