This painting shows a calm sea with several boats, their sails full of wind. The sky is cloudy, with dark clouds in the background. In the foreground, a few boats are moored to wooden posts, with people on board. The boats are painted in earthy tones, with the sails a lighter color. The water is calm, reflecting the boats and the sky. The painting is held at the Ashmolean Museum.
