This view is a particularly rare one of the
inner harbor of Macao. Typically, the view is
one of the Praya Grande which is situated
beyond the hills illustrated. In the foreground
are several large ships from Europe, United
States, England, and Portugal. The fort and
church on the hilltops are flying Portuguese
flags. The steam-driven ships in the harbor
indicate the relatively later date of this painting.
