On the shore in the left foreground a man in top hat sketches, believed to be a self-portrait of the artist, as his companion points toward the harbor.Houses, stores and trees are in the distance and to the right a road travels up a hill. The peak of the hill is called "Grumman's Hill." It is known as being the headquarters of Governor Tryon in 1779 as he over saw the burning of the town by the British.To the left of the hill three prominent buildings can be identified, the old "Town House" stands behind a flag pole and the spires of the Congregational and Episcopal Churches.
