This painting is a depiction of the daily life of fishermen and their families in the Dutch coastal town of Katwijk, a subject that was popular among artists for its picturesque qualities and the traditional costumes of the inhabitants.

The work is characterized by Hardy's deft use of watercolor to render the luminosity of the seaside atmosphere and the movement of the figures and the sea. The composition typically features the broad expanse of the sandy beach with figures engaged in various activities related to fishing, such as mending nets, sorting the catch, or preparing boats for the next voyage. The painting is a testament to Hardy's skill in capturing the changing light and weather conditions of the coastal environment, as well as his ability to convey the hardworking spirit of the fisherfolk.
