A horizontal block of dark brown wood is carved with a harbor scene. To our left, a tall lighthouse tower rises, supported by diagonal bracing. To our right, a boat with vertical masts sits on the water. In the upper section, straight, parallel lines slant rightward. Rough, horizontal gouges and wood grain provide texture throughout. A small, blocky figure stands in the lower center.
