A horizontally oriented etching with sparse, black lines creates a minimalist scene of a harbor on off-white paper. In the lower left, a tiny figure stands on a boat beside a small rowboat. Tall, spindly masts of two sailboats rise in the center against a vast, open sky. A low shoreline curves toward the right, while faint, wavering marks suggest reflections in the calm, pale water.
