D&D 5E Docks Illustration?

[Wolfpack48]

Ok, so this is driving me a little crazy. There’s a picture in 5e somewhere of people unloading crates from ships from what I thought was the Saltmarsh docks. It’s sort of low perspective looking up showing a bustling docks. For the life of me I can’t find that picture. I thought it was in Ghosts of Saltmarsh but maybe it’s in one of the new 5e books.

I’ve looked through the physical books but no luck. Does anyone know where that illustration is hiding?

Found it online, but I still don't know which book it's from. So strange.

Interesting. The buildings are a lot larger and more grand than I would have expected of Saltmarsh.

 

[Wolfpack48]

Yeah, it must be some other book. Maybe it's the new DMG.

I believe that’s from Waterdeep Dragon Heist. Certainly looks like Waterdeep.

Thanks - I must have just registered it in passing.

I imagine Saltmarsh as more like this:

 

[Wolfpack48]

"The docks of Saltmarsh are the beating heart of the town. The fishing trade and related commerce that keep the town alive are based here....

The docks have recently undergone a series of expansions intended to lure larger merchant vessels into the port. Two primary piers are used to load and unload large ships, while a series of smaller ones accommodate humbler vessels.

This part of Saltmarsh is almost constantly busy; it’s rare to see the large piers unoccupied..."

That’s not the original version. And it doesn’t make sense. Smugglers used quiet sleepy fishing villages, not busy major ports full of customs men.
