Summary

A view of Herne Bay, Kent, looking along shoreline which extends along the left of the painting, towards a group of seafront buildings. There is a beached, wooden rowing boat in the bottom left corner, and a sailing boat coming in to shore on the right. The dramatic sky is filled with dark, swirling clouds, and the sunlight is reflecting on the water.
