The picture shows a scene by the sea. A rusty chain can be seen in the foreground, which runs vertically and is presumably attached to a ship or a mooring. The chain has a reddish-brown color due to rust and consists of large, oval links. A calm, deep blue sea stretches out in the background, merging with a clear, light blue sky. The horizon line is gentle and gives the picture a peaceful atmosphere. There are no other noticeable details or objects in the picture.
