The contents of the painting show a morning in the Port of Le Havre in France. The sun is rising over the port as three ships in the foreground try to capture our attention away from the many anchored ships in the haze in the background. The blues and grays throughout the painting reflect a somber mood, which is literally being cut apart by the orange of the rising sun, which brings new life to the port.

The ships in the background create a sense of depth for us, while the fact that we can't really make out the people on the boats in the foreground adds to this idea that the painting is supposed to be an impression of how the port feels in the morning and not an actual representation of the port on any given day. The small, short, dot-like brush strokes allow Monet to quickly capture this changing scene and give us an even greater sense that the moment is not permanent.
