A vertically oriented etching in black ink on cream paper depicts a harbor scene. Scrawled, delicate lines form the complex rigging of sailing ships, their hulls mirrored in the water's horizontal strokes. Near a stone quay, a small boat with tiny figures rests beside tall, sketched buildings and a rounded tree. Cursive script reads "The Boompjes, Rotterdam" in the bottom right corner, while a single "S" is marked on the lower left.
