Beyond the barrels to the right of centre is a large light blue-green house, with a brick-red roof and one brown window. A blue and white tent is set up in front of the house. A brown pole borders the right side of the house and tent. The pole extends from the top of the picture to just below the blue tent. A number of other buildings are found in the picture, though the upper left quarter contains only an area of grass and rock which merges into a strip of distant water. The brown-grey rock and water are distinguished mainly by different directions of brushstrokes. Beyond the water lies a broken horizon of grey land, and light blue sky.

A building in the right foreground appears to have two brown chimneys on its roof. Two black boxes are by the left corner of the building. A low grey rising of rock behind this building partially hides two houses whose grey roofs are edged with light blue. A brown dock extends from these two buildings into the steel-blue water. An ochre and green shoreline composes most of the horizon. Violet-grey clouds parallel the slope of the near shoreline.

A white tent is pitched to the right of the green house closer to the channel's edge. Hills are seen in the distance, where they meet a light blue sky.

The bays contain bright blue water with ochre reflections. The middleground contains buildings upon the bay shore across from the tent. The houses are placed and coloured in a Cezanne manner.

- View of a grey-brown church encompassed by houses. The church is located in the foreground to the right of centre. The only side of the church which is in full view has no windows or doors. The church's bell tower has an orange cross upon it. There is an indication of a dirt road leading up to the left side of the church. The houses about the church are coloured blue-green, blue, ochre or white, with details in brown or black. The sky fills three-quarters of the picture. It is a medium blue tone behind the homes, but there is a mass of grey cloud with light yellow highlights directly behind the church bell. The upper sky contains plumes of cloud divided by fairly distinct lines of blue sky (composed of loose brushstrokes placed side by side). The lines of blue sky seem to radiate outwards, like wheel spokes, from a point to the left of the picture's centre. Signed, in the lower right, Catherine R. Whyte '68.
