A horizontally oriented oil painting captures a hazy seascape under a vast sky of muted grays and pale yellows. In the lower third, dark green water with small white crests stretches toward the horizon. On the left, small boats gather, one releasing dark smoke. Tiny white windmills stand in the distance, while a vessel on the right emits white steam. Loose, atmospheric brushstrokes create a slightly blurry scene with soft, layered textures throughout.
