This image depicts the coastal town of Manarola, Italy, nestled on a steep hillside overlooking the Ligurian Sea. The upper third of the frame features a clear, bright blue sky. The sea, deep blue and calm, occupies the left and lower-left portions of the image, containing several orange and white buoys. The coastline is characterized by rugged, dark grey stratified cliffs that drop directly into the sea, with green vegetation visible on the upper slopes. A distant coastline with low hills is discernible on the far left horizon. The town itself consists of numerous multi-story buildings, densely packed and constructed into the steep, terraced hillside. These structures display a variety of colors including red, orange, pink, yellow, cream, light blue, and white, many featuring rectangular windows. A prominent red building with white window frames and balconies stands near the water's edge. A small, natural harbor or inlet is visible in the lower right, featuring concrete jetties and ramps extending into the water. Adjacent to this harbor, a paved area holds several small boats, primarily blue, white, and yellow, stored on land. Small human figures are present: approximately two individuals are on the lower rock formations near the water on the left, and several more are observed on the concrete jetties and the paved boat storage area. The immediate foreground on the lower right consists of a pile of grey rocks. A single, small tree with green foliage is visible atop a rock outcrop within the upper section of the town.
