The main table shows a coastal landscape. The second having boats near the coastline, a lighthouse in the distance. The third, sailing boats at sea with light reflections. The fourth, Breton women in a rowing boat with light reflection, a gull in the foreground.

One of the legs has moved with age, as shown in the last photograph. This however is solid and does not affect the stability of the table.
