seascape

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'does it depict' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'waters near a headland?' is the wordplay.
'waters' becomes 'seas' (sea is a kind of water).
'near a' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'headland?' becomes 'cape' (I've seen this in another clue).
'seas'+'cape'='SEASCAPE'

'the' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for seascape that I've seen before include "Painting genre" , "Main work" , "Ocean picture" , "Marine view" , "rollers" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
