The painting belongs to the realism style, bordering on romantic European school traditions with its crisp architectural detail, harmonious color palette, and atmospheric perspective.
A row of historic townhouses, painted in earthy ochres, brick reds, and deep greens, lines the canal where boats of all sizes are docked. The reflections shimmer in the gently rippling water, with highlights of blues, warm golds, and soft greens capturing the motion and light of the scene. A handful of small human figures along the walkway add life and scale, suggesting a quiet afternoon in a coastal district steeped in culture.
The painting is signed by the artist in the bottom right corner. The work displays notable technical skill, particularly in architectural structure, linear perspective, and color harmony. The painting is housed in a rectangular frame with a brown outer edge, neutral fabric-textured mat, and a thin inner gold border that complements the warm tones in the scene.
