Several white wooden boats with colourful stripes and blue canopies travel in a line across a grey-green sea under an overcast sky. Passengers sit under the canopies on the nearest boat, which is at right, and the others in the line are partly visible. Low coastal buildings and trees line the distant shore, with a small red-and-white flag on a pole at the far right. No deity, throne or ritual activity is visible.
