The painting is executed on a wooden panel and is presented in a gold-colored, ornamented frame. The artist has employed an impressionistic touch to capture the dynamics of the water and the plumes of smoke from the ships. The work is signed 'L. Robbe' in the lower right corner. The reverse shows the original wooden panel and is fitted with a hanging cord.
The artwork is in good condition commensurate with its age, with the painting itself well preserved. The frame displays characteristic signs of age that contribute to the historical appearance of the whole.
