A vertically oriented oil painting depicts a coastal landscape under a sky of white and gray clouds with soaring birds. In the foreground, dark marsh grass borders shimmering pools of water. At center, a man and woman with medium-dark skin walk across the sand; she balances a basket on her head. To the left, a beached ship rests near tiny figures. Tall, spindly palm trees rise from a verdant sand dune on the right.
