A busy harbor scene. The harbor is full of boats rowing back and forth, and tall-masted shops are drawn up at a stone jetty, at the end of which stands a stone lighthouse tower with an elaborate lantern at the top. On the left are the walls of a city with a large arched gateway; people are milling about on the waterfront. The sky is mostly dark, with billowing clouds.
