It appears to have been taken around 1981. The boat's bow, painted in vibrant colors such as red, yellow, and white, dominates the foreground of the image. The sturdy ropes and the worn yet vivid colors of the boat suggest the hard work this vessel has likely endured. In the background, another boat can be seen, also painted in bright colors, with a cloudy sky overhead, indicating the stormy weather often found along the coast. The sea is visible in the distance, and the boats rest on the sandy beach, either ready for their next voyage or just returned from the ocean. The photo captures the rugged beauty and tradition of fishing in this region, with the dramatic sky and the presence of the boats, which are full of life in their colors but also bear the marks of daily use.
