About this work

This painting shows a seaside town with a big harbour. There are lots of boats in the water and buildings along the shore. The sky is light blue with some clouds. In the foreground, there are trees and bushes on a hill. People are standing on the hill, looking out at the view. The painting is done in watercolour, which gives it a soft, dreamy feel.
