A tall flagpole with a waving flag stands in the foreground beside a grassy slope where groups of onlookers, including women in long dresses and men in coats and hats, are gathered and gesturing toward the water. The harbor features piers and low lighthouses on either side, with small sailboats scattered on the calm sea beyond. Architectural railings and a wooden walkway are visible near the water, and the scene is rendered in a detailed etched style with layered horizontal shading in the sky and stippled textures on the land and water.
