Description, scan 2: Seen through the dark frame of a tent opening, a calm bay stretches across the middle of the picture, with a pebble beach curving along the lower edge. A rocky headland with low scrub runs along the right, and a long line of low hills rises on the far side of the water under a pale sky.
