The River Mersey flows gracefully through the center of the image, dotted with numerous ships that bear witness to Liverpool's thriving trade and transport activities. The harbor is abuzz with activity as fisherfolk go about their daily routines, casting fishing nets into the water in hopes of a bountiful catch.
