The scene depicts a coastal view at dusk, located in Ancón, Peru. The sky exhibits horizontal stratiform cloud formations with a gradient of colors, transitioning from pale blue-grey at the top to vibrant pinks, oranges, and yellows towards the horizon, indicative of a sunset. The water surface is calm, reflecting the sky's warm hues, creating elongated ripples and reflections. A single-masted sailboat, with its sails furled, is moored in the center-right midground. Its dark silhouette is sharply contrasted against the illuminated sky and water, with a distinct, elongated reflection of its mast and hull visible in the water directly below. Several buoys are visible in the water: one white buoy in the far left midground, one white buoy in the far right foreground, and two smaller, darker buoys between the sailboat and the coastline. To the left, a sloped coastline ascends, featuring multiple residential buildings. These structures, mostly silhouetted, display illuminated windows, suggesting internal lighting. The distant landmass and structures appear dark against the setting sun. Two birds are observed in flight against the colorful sky, one positioned above and to the left of the sailboat's mast, and another smaller bird further to the left.
