The port city of San Remo, on the western edge of Italy, along the Mediterranean, offered artists ample subject matter. This etching shows a group of fishing boats coming ashore, with a dome and fortified structure to the right. The artist regularly documented the scenic ports of the Mediterranean, including those in Italy and France (Collioure).
