The image shows an elevated view looking down over a coastal scene. A blue-roofed structure is visible closest to us, with a body of water beyond populated by several small sailboats and scattered posts. Across the water, there is a shoreline lined with buildings. The horizon is high in the composition, separating the buildings from the sky. The painting features loose and expressive brushstrokes, with an impressionistic style that suggests movement and fluidity, especially in the water. The color palette is soft and dominated by blues, aquamarines, whites, light tans, and subtle hints of red in the architecture.
