Childe Hassam, circa 1918

The image shows a landscape view across a body of water towards a small town or village in the distance. The horizon is placed just above the midline, featuring structures, likely houses with pitched roofs, and some scattered trees. Several vertical forms that resemble ship masts rise against the sky along the horizon. The brushstrokes are delicate and sketch-like, consisting of short, fine lines and dashes that give the composition an impressionistic quality. The color palette is monochrome, primarily black on a light background. In the sky, there are a few faint, wispy clouds, and the water's surface is depicted with horizontal lines suggesting gentle ripples.
