The other two boats are smaller and have white sails. In the background, there is a grassy shore with some trees and bushes. The sky is cloudy and gray. The painting has a serene and peaceful atmosphere, with the boats gently floating on the water. The artist has used soft brushstrokes and muted colors to create a sense of calmness. The overall effect is one of tranquility and relaxation. If you're interested in learning more about the artist who created this piece, you might want to look up Walter Leistikow.
