Oval-shaped canvas depicting, in the foreground, dark blue sea with a large number of festively flagged vessels, which approach the shore. In one of the boats, you can see a group of black people playing musical instruments, ladies under parasols and, in another boat, a flag of the divine holy spirit. In the background, on the hillside, some people ride horses and others rest under trees, several stalls can be seen. At the top, on the left, a white building on two floors, with a white, red and blue flag flying. Around, people walk. Beside, a stream with a wheel mill. In the background, cutouts of mountains in blue. Clear blue sky with white clouds. Golden wood frame.
The painting's authorship is attributed to Leandro Joaquim.
