DescriptionThe image is a harbor scene with the foreground from the bottom right corner to the center left side being comprised of a compacted dirt surface edged along the waterline with mounds of sand. Centered in the composition are two horses, facing the left edge, standing in front of a cart being loaded with sand by a male figure. Masts and sails from unseen boats appear behind the sand piles, while a larger vessel can be seen moored in the water. A town is in the distance in the left side background and mountains are silhouetted behind.
