A horizontally oriented etching depicts a marine scene in fine lines. In the foreground on the left, four men with light skin tones labor on a large boat; one stands while three others crouch. Sailboats drift across the background water under a pale sky with wispy clouds. Bold black lines forming a large X and a central vertical are superimposed over the composition, all three intersecting at the midpoint.
