The image displays a panoramic view of the Contrafossa channel in Corfu Town, Greece, separating the Old Fortress. The scene is observed from an elevated perspective, looking north-northeast towards the open sea and distant mountains under a clear blue sky with wispy cirrus clouds. To the left (west), a lower, grey stone fortification wall runs horizontally, topped by a tree-lined promenade. A tall, slender cypress tree stands prominently near the wall's edge. Below the wall, a grassy bank slopes down to the water, featuring a small, gabled stone building with a blue door and a small chimney. Several white-hulled motorboats are moored along a narrow stone quay on this side. Further along the western bank, beyond the small building, red-roofed buildings and more trees are visible, leading towards the sea. To the right (east), a massive, multi-tiered stone fortification wall, part of the Old Fortress, rises vertically from the water, exhibiting weathered stonework and sparse vegetation. The Contrafossa channel, dark blue and placid, runs centrally through the image, filled with numerous moored boats of varying sizes, including white motorboats and at least one sailing yacht. The channel opens into the broader expanse of the Ionian Sea in the background, where a distant coastline and a range of mountains are discernible. No individuals are present in the frame. The scene is illuminated by natural daylight, casting subtle shadows from the structures and vegetation.
