The color palette is composed primarily of muted grays, whites, and blues, with earth-toned accents in the hull and rigging. The work is signed Bryan in the lower right corner in a reddish-brown cursive script. The painting is housed in a substantial dark-stained wooden frame that includes a beige linen inner liner and a secondary thin wood molding. 7.5 x 9.25 in. (Visible Image)16 x 17.5 in.
