Hafen mit großem Turm

Claude Lorrain, um 1641

The image shows a harbor scene with maritime activities. Men are loading goods onto small boats near the shore. A cylindrical stone structure is on the left, with sailing ships docked behind it. The landscape extends towards the horizon where more ships are sailing. The etching features detailed linework, a monochromatic sepia tone, and a sky with fine lines suggesting clouds. Small birds are flying in the sky.
