This painting depicts the Vieux Bassin (Old Harbor) in Honfleur, France, rendered from a slightly elevated vantage point overlooking the harbor. The sky is light blue with sparse white cloud formations. On the left, a tall, slender church spire ascends above a cluster of multi-story buildings, characterized by dark grey roofs and dormer windows. The main waterfront is lined with a continuous row of narrow, multi-story buildings, predominantly dark grey with varied roof colors including dark grey and ochre, some featuring red and yellow awnings at street level. Towards the far right, additional structures with earthier tones are present. A stone quay separates the buildings from the water, upon which several small, indistinct figures are visible, indicating human presence. The harbor water is dark, displaying reflections of the surrounding architecture and boats, with a visible mix of green, blue, and grey tones. Numerous boats are moored throughout the harbor. In the immediate foreground on the right, multiple white-hulled sailboats are docked, one displaying a furled orange sail and another with a blue cabin cover; a lifebuoy is attached to one of these vessels. Further into the harbor, a traditional wooden sailboat with a reddish-brown sail is navigating or moored, accompanied by other sailboats and smaller vessels with prominent masts and furled sails.
