Description:A sailing boat with a dinghy is approaching the quay at Akıntıburnu. On the quay, which extends along the lower right section of the picture, a man in a bright shirt and a hat is pulling the boat towards him. Two men standing on the boat are handling long poles. A third man in the middle of the boat with his arms akimbo is looking towards the shore. On the left margin, at some distance, there is a rowing boat with two people aboard.
Comment:Sailing boats were used to transport goods on the Bosphorus.
