This black-and-white image shows a quiet harbor scene. A person stands in a small boat, holding a pole, while another pulls the boat toward shore with ropes. In the background, a few larger ships sit in the water, and a cluster of buildings with sloped roofs lines the shore. The misty sky and soft light make everything look calm and still. The artist used shading to create depth, almost like a shadowy glow over the whole scene. Look up *chiaroscuro* to learn how this lighting trick works.
