A horizontally oriented oil painting on wood depicts a moody estuary scene under a heavy sky. Two light-skinned men in a dark boat pull a net in the lower left, one wearing a red jacket and the other brown. Sailboats and a fishing boat drift across the misty water in the distance. Dense, dark gray clouds loom overhead, revealing a faint orange glow along the horizon that casts the scene in deep shadow.
