We see in this canvas a coastal landscape of clear romantic heritage, of costumbrista approach and expressive language, of especially dense brushstroke in the foreground, tighter and more precise in the background to reflect with naturalism the spatial depth. It thus combines two of the most appreciated themes at this time, genre painting and landscape. The composition, on the other hand, is dynamic but perfectly balanced, with accentuated diagonal lines in the foreground that contrast with the horizontal lines that determine the background, characterized by a low horizon that leaves ample space for the development of the sky, also built with horizontal bands.
