The image is a sepia-toned etching depicting a coastal scene with various activities and structures. On the left side of the image, you can see a large sailing ship with multiple masts anchored near the shore. Another smaller boat is nearby, and a few figures appear to be on the boats or by the shore.

In the center foreground, a group of people engages in different activities, including sitting and talking. Toward the right, a majestic stone structure with tall towers covered in some vegetation overlooks the coast. It resembles a castle or a fortress and is depicted with intricate details showing its aged and imposing look.

The background features more ships, a coastline extending into the distance, and mountains or large hills under a cloudy sky. The main focus is on the serene yet bustling coastal scene, capturing a moment in time where nature and human activities coexist harmoniously.

Below the main image, there is text in Latin: "Illi robur et aes triplex / Circa pectus erat qui fragilem truci / Commisit pelago ratem / Primus nec timuit praecipitem Africum", which translates to a passage from Horace's Odes reflecting on the courage of those who dared to venture the seas. The image is labeled "Plate 23" in the upper right corner.
