A horizontally oriented watercolor painting depicts a muted coastal landscape in tan and gray. From the bottom right, a sandy beach curves toward the center, dotted with small figures. To the left, a sailboat sits on water streaked with pale green. A dark cliff rises in the middle ground, topped with light-colored ruins and buildings. Above, soft washes of gray and brown form a hazy, smoky sky.
