The image shows a coastal view with a distant shoreline visible across the water. The horizon is high, with a pale sky meeting the blue sea. A small boat with figures is in the water. The coast to the right curves into the distance, with a rocky cliffside. Dark brushstrokes depict the rocky shore in the foreground. The overall color palette is soft, with blues, greys, and muted earth tones creating a calm atmosphere.
