The image features the Manhattan Bridge extending across the scene, with buildings in the background. A dock or pier with large shapes is in the foreground. The scene is depicted in shades of gray and black, with bold brushstrokes. The water reflects the structure of the bridge and city. Swirling clouds in the sky partially obscure the light.
