Beyond these boats is a track raised on piles which connects the foreshore to the breakwater and a large cement mixer is working with a rake of wheeled trucks. A large notice is suspended on the guardrail of the raised track and the words Alto Commissario and Impresa S.I.L.M. on it. A number of rowing boats are drawn up on the beach on the left. Buildings of various types line the waterfront and are on the slopes of Monte San Michelle in the background.
