The image depicts an old, panoramic view of a fortified city, featuring numerous towers, spires, and buildings enclosed within a city wall. A river flows in the foreground, with several boats sailing on its waters. The scene is surrounded by lush green landscapes, with small figures walking and working in the landscape.
